The way I always understood it, "F" was shorthand for "filial generation". It's a measure of relatedness and has no bearing on the number of generations removed from the wild. The terms F1, F2 etc. are very often misused by alterna breeders to represent just that. By definition, F2s can only be created by the pairing of siblings (F1s).
