I am called Grammy, however most of the time I get "But,Gram"
My DGKs live with me and thats what i get when i tell them no about something.
I tell them that's not my name. LOL

My oldest grandchild called me Mayma as did some of the others that came along. Some
call me Gramma. I have a brother and sister in law who are called Sweet Mama and Sweet
Papa by their grandchildren. I won't comment on that.

I am called Granny...kinda a title for me, my Granny was one of the most special ladies in my life. I can only hope I can live up to it/her.

We were supposed to be Oma and Opa, the German names. My first grandchild decided we were O-Mommy and O-Poppy and then ended up with Oni and Opi so that's who we turned out to be. Never heard any others called that so i guess we're original.

My son married a girl from China. Our GD calls me NiNi(rhymes with my,my) and my husband is YeYe(sounds like yea,yea). Her mother is called PawPaw and her father GongGong.

because i am 5'8" tall and my gk's other grandmother is 4'11" tall we are big grandma and little grandma. as someone else said here, "i am just glad to be called." since my granddaughters are in their teens i now sign greeting cards as b.g. saves time writing. lol
