Years ending in 0- as a decade are called the "aughts" and the next decade is the "teens."

Also, a new decade starts with 01, 11, 21, etc and ends in the -0 year 1980 was part of the '70s, 1990 was part of the '80s.

I would refer to the current decade as the DOUBLE~OH'S and the next decade as the TENS. I welcome any other suggestions.
