Has anyone encountered a GENERIC name of the thread list in your pattern copy?

I bought a pattern and the thread list is Generic, Im so lost because I dont know the generic thread.

If by "generic", you mean light blue, dark green, and so on; yes.

If you come across such threads, you should report them here:

A link is always good when you ask questions about a spesific pattern

I guess youre talkiing about cross stitch embroidery (looking at your avatar)?
It could be the case that you downloaded a pattern that is before the 1980s.
If so, a generic colour key was usual.
If red or green was mentioned in the pattern you just took the colour red or green you were able to get your hands on in the store.
Luckily weve lost that problem!
But my grandmother had a little shop and told me about those kind of stocking problems they had in those days.

I bought a cross stitch pattern and the thread list is name Generic with numbers also like Generic 001 for example. I cant find the conversion on this to Dmc.

There is no actual name of the pattern I bought. It is Half naked woman. I until now never convert it to Dmc thread. Maybe one day I will find the pattern with a Dmc thread list, I hope so....
