What is the proper terminology for this decade? The O’s? - Jinx

There is not one. Even Perfect Master could not find a satisfactory answer

I once read a suggestion calling it ‘The Noughties’

An even more appropriate column from the Master: “What did people in the 1900s call the decade in which they lived?” Still no definitive answer though.

The 21st Century.

Until 2013, when we can call them the Teens.

In keeping with tennis-scores, a couple of friends of mine have been calling it * “the loveties” *. I think it sounds great, although it seems mildly inappropriate
