Zillennials

Zillennials, occasionally called Zennials, are a social cohort encompassing people born on the cusp of or during the latter years of the Millennial generation and the early years of Generation Z. Sources typically give ranges of those born from 1993 to 1998, though some extend this further in either direction. Their adjacency between the two generations and limited age set has led to their characterization as a "micro-generation". They are generally the children of younger Baby Boomers and older Gen Xers. Estimates of the U.S. population in this cohort range from 30 million to 48 million.

== Etymology == The term Zillennial is a portmanteau of "Generation Z" and "Millennial". A similar portmanteau, Zennial, is also used, which is comparable to Xennials (a portmanteau of Generation X and Millennials). Other names that have been proposed for these cuspers include the Snapchat Generation by authors Ubl, Walden, and Arbit, and MinionZ by Smit. GenZennials was used to reference the micro-generation by Ketchum.
