My son called my Grandmother (his great) grapes grandma. So to differentiate between the grandmothers, all the kids started calling her grapes grandma.

My niece called the same Grandmother- Tower grandma because she lived on the third floor of the assisted living facility.

Dama my DGD couldn't say grandma. It stuck only now she is a teenager its Gramma in public. she doesn't want to try and "explain" I would have preferred Nana but none of the grandkids called me that. And really they are the ones to decide right?

I am Meme - started out as Mimi, but Meme is easier to quilt onto the quilts I make for them!!!! The other grama is MomMom, and we both love our names.
The first grandson started calling my husband 'Poopa' but it was because he knew it was a naughty word (Poop) and my daughter put a quick stop to it!! I still love it!! :lol:
