    My grandchildren and great grandchildren call me OMA. That is Dutch (and German) for Grandmother. My husband is called OPA. My husband is Dutch.

    This is what DH and I are called, except for by one. He calls us Nanny (or as it sounds from him: Naneeeeeee) and Pappy, not sure why.

    One GD called me Dranny until she got her G's right. They all call me Granny now and husband Grandpa. When the greats started coming along everyone ask what are they going to call you. I just want them to say what fits for them. Twin boys call me Ganny, one GGD says mam-ma, 2-1/2 calls me Grenny. The youngest isn't talking yet. I loved when my grandchildren came along but it is so wonderful to have greatgrands.

    I just hope that we have some...someday...
    I kinda want to be Nana...I had a Nana...and always loved that name.
    This way there will be less confusion since there are other Grandmas in the family...

    It started out I was gamma because they couldn't say their R's but now I am gramma. My hubby is pop pop. I wanted to be grammy but for some reason I don't feel as old as that sounds. LOL

    I get called by my name........Hubby's daughter has 4 kids 2,3,5 & 6; his first wife died 13 yrs ago (before her kids were born) but she does not want the kids to call me anything but Lisa......oh well her choice, I love them to no end and it brings nothing but joy when they run into my arms and give me tons of hugs and kisses (I wish I had 4 arms so I could scoop them all up at once; and tell me they love me and cry when I leave. My sons daughter I am called Nanny.......
