They also have in common long stupid names and camel case.

Age is irrelevant actually. Programming languages don't get "old" they just fall out of use or don't get updated with so-called "modern" features; or have their community die out.

Only "dead/obsolete" languages are not modern. Though god knows for every language there is you got at least one guy using it somewhere to this day.
