I think your question is when did the word emo begin being used? In the book "Everybody Hurts: An Essential Guide To Emo Culture" The author says the first time the word was used was in 1997. Any answers about "emo" history or culture, etc. can be answered in this book, not to mention its HILARIOUS!

Actually in an episode of MASH, BJ used the word emo to describe Hawkeye. He called him Captain Emo when Hawkeye was depressed over a letter he had received. So the word emo had been used much earlier then first thought.
