Based on why I've heard it seems they use the word to be a synonym of the word "paradox" (?)

But according to the dictionary, inception means commencement or beginning or initiation.

What is their definition of the word "Inception" in the movie?

Inception was the movie that popularized movie trailers that went BWAAAAAAAAAA.

It's a sci-fi action movies where they try to put memories into people's dreams.

The movie has scenes that take place within dreams, and dreams within dreams, and making the audience unsure if this is a dream or not.

People using the word inception are referencing that from the move. Often the nested realities thing within another thing part.
