Subject: This decade should be called the "Twenty Tens"

Written By: 2010s now!!! on 12/31/09 at 9:43 pm

It's not as easy as 1980s, 1990s etc, as only 2010 has "ten" in it, but when you see "2010s" written down it looks like a plural of "2010".

there isn't really any reason to have confusion to resort to nicknames, like in the 2000s, which are now generally called The Noughties.

Let us all wait for the decade to develop and after a while then decide on the name for it.

Yeah, it should be called the tens, with 2013-2019 being called the teens. Happy new year and decade!

tweens are generally ten to 13... not teenagers, not little children... tweenagers... so it would only apply for a couple years... I've been calling it the teens even though the entire decade isn't going to be "teen" years... it's enough in my book though.

Cooooooooooooool.

I'm sure alot of the population had a good 00's, but me? It sucked for me personally between 2002-2009. 2000 and 2001 was okay though.

But soon certain incidents of the 2010s will be in the past too, which will just be confusing for all concerned.

I don't think the concept of "Teenagers" was around in the 1910s, so it probably wasn't called the Teens.

Back in the 1910's they had a lot more on their minds than naming decades.

Most people refer to the '00s as the 'aughts'.  The period between 2013 and 2019 will be called the 'teens'.  I believe history will look at 2010-12 just as an extension of the aughts just as 1910-12 was pretty much an extension of the 1900s decade.

The teens sound right.
