Well, maybe Nostradamus had a clue, but the rest of us were obviously in the dark. European villagers maybe called it "all that danged shooting out in the front yard.” Your point of view makes a difference.
WWI was “the Great War” until the end of World War II. Oddly enough, we called WWII "World War II” or “the Second World War” before we officially acknowledged the prerequisite WWI.

Secretary of War Henry Stinson and President Harry Truman officially dubbed the conflicts World War I and World War II, respective and that was that. Debate over.
