    People say 19 "oh" 4, so 20 0'4 works for me.

    i just call it the two thousands. obviously that could refer to the whole millennium but when we get to 2010 we'll start calling that something. naught and oughts and all that just sounds too stupid. i will say i basically never hear this decade referred to by any name so i'm not sure if there's a consensus out there i'm missing. 2000's is good for me.

    I've always called it "the zeroes", you know, like the Rockets.

    I've always called it the "two-thousands"...most people knew what I was talking about since they didn't know what to call it themselves. I mean, it's not like I'm talking about the whole century. So, they just assume this decade.

    Next decade will be called the "tens." Because I don't think we'll call it the "teens." Uhg!

    I like the Zeroes, like ZRB said. Flows a lot better than aught or naught.
