What did they call it between 1910 and 1920? It must have had a nickname of some sort surely, or is this a more modern 'invention'?

Re: What is the next decade gonna be called???
 

according to wikipedia it does seem to have started 1920's onwards...

"2010s decade, pronounced "twenty-tens", "two thousand (and) tens" or simply "the tens",[1][2] is the upcoming decade beginning January 1, 2010 and ending December 31, 2019."

My daughter says she is calling it the Teenies.:)

Well we have 10 or so years to ponder the issue....as you tend to use these terms retrospectively....i.e. after that decade has passed.

Have already seen it in the newspapers (UK) ..referred to as The Teenies !
