I call my mother "Mama". If I'm talking to someone else I refer to her as Mom or "my mother". My son called me Mommy when he was little. Now he calls me Mom. My sister's children are grown and still call her Mama. She said she never felt like "Mom" but "Mama". Oddly I never felt like "Mama".

I have no grandchildren. I will let my son decide what they call me when and if he has children. He called MIL "Grandmama". My mother is known as Grandmother, thanks to my father's formal family. My grandmothers were "Grandmother" and "Granny".

I would prefer Grandma, Granny or Grandmama over Grandmother or Mimi or Gigi.

Always called her Mom, called her mother, Grandma. My kids always called me Mom and now my grandkids call me Grandma. Youngest son will occasionally call me Mama, but it's usually in a joking manner.

when my mom was tiny, her grandmother asked her to call her mother 'Dear'. mom couldn't pronounce that - only Dee. so that forever became my grandmother's name.

I always called my mother "Mommy". When I was a teenager I thought that sounded babyish until the day I heard my Grandma refer to her mother as "Mommy". I called my mother "Mommy" until the day she died. My three grown daughters all call me Moma, my spelling. The all have their own way of spelling it so when I sign, I use my way of combining. I used Grandma for both grandmothers. My grandkids use Mas, Masy, Grandma, or Grammy. None were ever allowed to address me by my name, Phyllis! We think Mas originated from the oldest grandchild going to "grandmas".
