Names for Grandparents: What do you call yours?

[Moesha]

We called our grandparents (my dad's parents) Grammie and Grampie when talking to them. I remember writing them letters spelling those words out. My mom's mom was Grammie too. My mom's dad had died before I was born. I was the first grandchild. When talking about the grandmothers, we used where they were from to tell them apart. There was Grammie Florida and Grammie Cape (Cape Cod). We didn't live near either one of them since we were in Tennessee. Once we grew up, we call them both Grandma. We were the only grandchildren on my mother's side since she was an only child. My dad had a brother that had two sons. They lived near Grandma Cape and their other grandparents. They used to call her Grammie Belle (her name is Rosa Belle) and her husband was Grampie Joe. Now that my brother has children, they call her Granny. My mom's mother died about 5 years ago, but they called her great grandma. My mom and dad are Grandma and Grandpa to them. Their other grandparents are Grandma and Poppy.

I called my Mom's parents just Grandma and Grandpa. When Mom married my (step)Dad they became Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Louie and Grandma Katie and Grandpa Ken. As us kids got into texting our only living grandmother (Bonnie) became G-ma. My Uncle Tom's kids called her Ding-Ding. Grandpa was Ding-Dong. Dustin calls his grandmother Nonnie. He has no idea where that came from.

I don't know what are children will call our parents. I guess I'll just let it come natural. Though Dustin just suggested Granny Num-Num.

I called my grandparents Grama and Granpa (last name). Although I never knew my fathers dad. We couldn't say just the last initial because they were the same letter.

My nieces call my parents Grama and Granpa and my SILs parents Nana and Papa. They called their stepgrandma Grama Billie, but she is no longer living. I'm actually not sure what they call their Nana's husband. I think just by his first name.

Bruce's nephew calls his mom Grammie and the other Grandmother Gran B. B for her last name. And like Cataholic said, they chose the names they wanted him to call them.

Both of my grandfathers died when I was very young, both of my step grandfathers died before I could even meet them. My stepmoms Mom I have only met once and I simply called her Maam.

My dads mom, my brother and I couldnt pronounce our last name so we called her Granny Mo and it stuck, our moms mom we called grandma C.

I called my fathers parents Oma and Opa as we are German. I called my adoptive grandfather, Grandpa. My grandkids call me GG. I am gorgeous grandma. I like being a GG.

Three of my grandparents passed before I was born so I only knew my grandfather on my mother's side whom I called "Granpap".
