Sorry for the question but I see it used all the time and I'm just in the dark.

They were made up when internet forums first became really popular in the early 2000s. So at the time, the 99-06 was the newest body style and the previous gen, 88-98, was the old body style. It kind of stuck so when the 07+ cam around it was the new new body style.
