The graduating class of 2000 were the original millennials before it was used as a general term for an entire generation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

They coined the term in 1987, around the time children born in 1982 were entering kindergarten, and the media were first identifying their prospective link to the impending new millennium as the high school graduating class of 2000.[29]
