The First World War was called the First World War as early as September 1914. There were certainly plenty of people who were pretty darned sure that it wouldn't be too long after the end of the First war for there to be a Second one.

Thinking that there would be future world wars is very different from being able to foresee that the peace treaties of World War I would be a cause of World War II. Specifically that the Treaty of Versailles would impose crippling financial indemnities on Germany that would totally prevent its economic recovery and also that the treaties of Trianon and Saint-Germain-en-Laye would draw completely ridiculous unsustainable boundaries in Central Europe. Those things particularly were, I think, utterly unforeseeable in 1918. Also more minor things like the particular implementation of minority rights regimes in Eastern Europe, the completely untenable structure of the League of Nations and its total failure, etc. The things that made Versailles and the other peace treaties causes of future war were very specific features of the peace settlement, the process by which it was negotiated, and Clemenceau's domination of said process.
