The term “Generation X” was first popularized by Douglas Coupland through his 1991 novel “Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture.” This naming initially referred to the post-Baby Boomer generation, often perceived as a generation lacking a clear identity or an unknown “X.” Linguistically, “X” symbolizes uncertainty or anonymity.
