I'm going to be a first time grandma in Sept, I think I would like to be called Nonna (I believe it's Itailan ) as my name is Norma, however sometimes little people have their own ideas. My son would only ever call my dad Bobby (which is his name) his other grandpa was papa, when he was old enough we asked him why he never called my dad grandpa or papa and he said because he's Bobby and he's not old enough to be a grandpa( my dad was 55 at the time).

My friend has numerous grands and great grands. They all call her nannie. We only have one grand and he calls us Grandma Karen and Grandpa Jim. For his other grandma it is Nana. He called his other grandfather, Pop until his recent death. By the way he died at 11:34 pm on January 31st. Social Security had to have the whole month's check back. Our government screwed up... again...

My DH family has so many nicknames for the grandmas. Mimi is what all the grandkids call his mom. He called both of his grandmothers Bing. Apparently the oldest sibling started it. He couldn't pronounce grandma but how he came up with Bing is beyond me. Eons ago my boss was Dutch and when he brought his mother over to visit, everyone called her Oma. For the longest time I thought that was actually her name. It wasn't until much later I learned it was dutch for grandma. I always liked Oma both the person and the term.
