baby-phile

Baby-phile (sometimes also babyphile) is a ambiguous term used in the X-Files Fandom (Philedom) which may refer to:

1) a new fan of The X-Files that just recently became a fan of the show. Sometimes also referred to as "neophile".
One of the first usages if this term with this definition was first used during the 2012 X-Files Paley Event by an X-Phile in the audience.
2) a fan that was born after 2002 when the original run of the show ended.
3) an offspring of one or more X-Philes which is exposed to the fandom and thus most likely will become or became a fan by proxy.

The term is combination of the word baby and X-Phile (fans of the show The X-Files).
Since the end of The X-Files in 2002, a lot of baby-philes have joined the fandom.
