We are Grandma & Grandpa except when there is more Grandparents around then we are Grandma Linda & Grandpa Steve.
I love reading all the different names and as long as they call us who cares what it is. Just have to love them

My grandson calls me something he made up - I've googled it and it doesn't show up so I guess I'm unique He calls me "Udda Bugga" and yes, there is a story behind it - when he was learning to talk, he and his mother lived with me while his dad (part-time Guard at the time) was serving full time in the Army after 9/11. He would constantly follow me around and his mother would say, "Don't bug her." He started calling both my mother (his great-grandmother) and me "Bugga" - his version of bug her. Well, when we were together with him, he would say, "Bugga" and my mother would answer and he would say, "Not you, the Udda Bugga." Bugga didn't stick to my mother, he now he calls my her "Granny" but "Udda Bugga" stuck to me. He's now 11 and just a week or so ago he asked me if I wanted to be called something else.....uh, no, I'm "Udda Bugga!!" The one and only!!! LOL
All that to get to, no matter what you might want them to call you, they have a way of coming up with some names on their own!!
