- People born before 1946 were called The Silent Generation.

- The Baby Boomers, are people born between 1946 and 1961.

- Generation X, people born between 1962 and 1979.

- Generation Y, are the people born between 1980 and 2009.

Why do we call the last group Generation Y? I never did know, but recently a cartoonist explained it very eloquently
