    Those born between these years are Xennials:
    * 1977–1985 according to Business Insider
    * 1977‒1983 according to The Guardian
    * 1977‒1982 according to Slate

    The years of each generations:
    * ???‒??? - The Ancients
    * Anything between “The Ancients” and 1945 have different names, and is usually based on different Western countries.
    * 1946‒1964 - Baby #Boomers
    * 1965‒1985 - #GenX
    * 1977‒1985 - #Xennial
    * 1981‒1996 - #GenY a.k.a. #Millennial (or #GenM in South Korea)
    * 1997‒2012 - #GenZ
    * 2013‒2025(?) - #GenAlpha

    There is also what is called #GenMZ. It is a combination of Millennials and GenZ, that is 1981‒2012. “GenMZ” is more commonly used in South Korea than anywhere else.
