My intention was to have my GK call me Gramma Nan. My DS kids call me Gramma Last name and I don't like it. They call their other grandma...grandma. My DD's little girl will be two in a couple of months and she calls me Mae-Mae. I love it.

Me-maw hows that one?

Two of my grandchildren used to refer to us as Grandma and Grandpa Far because we live what they call "a longgg ways away." Their other grandparents live in town. I like being called Grandma Linda.
|
We are called Granddad and Grandma with the kittens. We have cats.

Their other grandmother chose Nana. We were very close which was great for the kids but sadly, she passed a couple of years ago. If I couldn't be Grandma I'd want to be Grammy, Gram or something like that with my initial or name. Like Grammy A. |
I was "chicken gramma" until the kids got old enough to drop the chicken part. The other DGM lives in the city.

Around here, we are Grammy & Papa.
Great-grandma became Gigi~ |
I had two wonderful grandmothers. Mom's mother was Granny. Dad's mom was Grandma. Never had to wonder which one I was speaking about.
My husband's two oldest grandchildren, now in their 30's, have always called him Pancake. When first grandchild Kristi was about two she announced she had so many grandfathers - her dad's father, her dad's grandfather, her mother's father, her mother's stepfather, and even my dad got in there. My parents became Grandma and Grandpa Ted. Because we always took the family to IHOP when we visited them in Florida my husband became "the Pancake Grandpa" which quickly became Pancake. The other grandchildren call him Grandpa Jack (and me Grandma Verna) but to Kristi and Bobby it's Pancake to this day. |
I am one of many Grandmothers. I tried for Grandmama but it didn't take. I think I"m GrandmaCase and Mom to my son. Had to call my own Mother, Mother. Never Mom.
