What will your LO call his/her grandparents?

inbetweendreams

I grew up calling both sets of grandparents "grandma" and "grandpa," and we planned on having DS do the same with his grandparents. My mom has decided she wants to be called something other than grandma, and I'm starting to notice that a lot of people have other names for their grandparents.

So, just out of curiousity--what will your LO call your and your DH's parents?

We're still trying to come up with one for my aunt and uncle (my mom is dead and my dad is estranged from our family).  I suggested Grant and Gruncle (great aunt, great uncle), but they didn't like that.

My mom - Nannie (started as Nana, then Nonnie, the Nannie.) It sort of morphed with the older grandchildren.

My dad- Poppie

DH's mom & Dad- Grandma & Grandpa (MIL wanted to be GiGi for "Greatest Grandma". I put the smack on that. I won't call her that.  DSS looks at her like she's nuts when she calls herself GIGI. The other day he asked who GiGi was?  I loved it!

I call my grandparents "granny" and "papa" and dh calls his "nana & papa"...which is what DS will call them. ?dh's mom wants to be called meemaw- we aren't sure about his dad... MIL wants him to be called Papa Billy... but DH thinks it is disrespectful to use first names... my mom wants to be Nana... and my great grandma we call grandma (last name)...

my mom and stepdad - Granna and Pappy

MIL - grandma

my dad and stepmom are still in denial over being grandparents since they still have a 9 year old, a 16 year old and an 18 year old at home, so they haven't picked their names yet.  lol.
