During the 1910s young girls wore big bows on their hair that fell onto the head, and so they became known as "flappers". The name would stick with this generation, as they grew up in the 1920s.

Great flapper picture !!!
Your intro on the origin of the term flapper is different from what I heard. I read an account somewhere that it was derived from the type of zip-up rain boot the girls wore in those days. They would leave the tongues of the boot open, and they would make a flapping sound as they walked, hence "flapper".
I've heard several versions as well, I don't know what the truth is.
