Year names are normally spelled using the hundreds name, which is one less than the century, e.g. 1952 is "nineteen fifty-two" and was in the 20th century (AD). The victory by William the Conqueror was in "ten sixty-six" (1066).
The exception is the use of thousand names for millennial years BC and AD. This includes "one thousand" for the year 1000 AD and "two thousand" for 2000 AD. This continued into the first decade of the second millennium, where, for example, 2001 was more often "two thousand one" rather than "twenty-oh-one." This is unlikely to continue past 2020 (twenty twenty) and in fact 2012 and 2013 are widely being called "twenty twelve" and "twenty thirteen."
The AD names can continue this convention until the year 10,000. Individual BC years are seldom specified before 10,000, being part of prehistory. The ranges there are often in the many thousands or millions of years.

∙ 11y agoNo. It's not necessary but it is more appropriate to write the year in numeral than to spell it out.
Examples:
1997
