A baby boomer is someone who was born during a period of increased birth rates, or baby boom, and the term is particularly applied to those born during the post-World War II period of increased birth rates. In the United States, the term is iconic and more properly capitalized as Baby Boomers.
The term is commonly applied to people with birth years after World War II (WW II) and before the Vietnam War, the years from 1946 to 1964, thus possibly comprising more than one generation.The terms “baby boomer” and “baby boom” along with others (i.e., “boomies“), are widely used even in countries with demographics that did not mirror the sustained growth in American families over the same interval. Although the term “boomer” has expanded into global use, the generation is also known in Europe as the Generation of 1968. (Source: Wikipedia)
