I still don't know how to pronounce the 00s. I mean I've heard people say 'the two thousands', but to me that sounds like you're talking about everything 2000-present. 'Early two thousands' is better, but it's still not specific to the one decade. Maybe I'm overthinking it.
In the UK the 00s are called 'the noughties'.
Which honestly is the only right answer.
I’ve been calling them the same for many years and I only heard it in passing a few times. But I enjoy it because I was a late teen/young adult then so… 😏
