    After them will be bravo, Charlie, etc. It’s just the phonetic naming for letters, they’re in no way saying gen alpha is the best like incels believe alpha always means.

      Getting a bit lazy with the Gen names, aren’t they? X was X because it was undefinable. Marketers were unable to find any specific generalizations about Gen X. It wasn’t meant to kick off a lettered naming scheme.

        I don’t think they need a marketable name, they’re just a way to categorize groups of people based on age.
