    On one side of the family it's Yiayia (or Grams) and Papou (Or Grandpa), while the other side is Granny (or Manoush) and Babo (and GG, my great grandmother) :bigsmile:

    Mine were both Grandma. I'm Emma...oldest grandchild's way of saying Grandma when he learned to talk. Now, everyone calls me Emma. My Sis-n-law is Indian...Squaw-Maw is her name.

    Yaya, but you don't get to pick. Whatever that baby calls you will be music to your ears.

    Haha! I have a "Nan". My son calls my mom "Mimi" (we tried to call her "Grammy" - he didn't go for that...). I used to have a "Speed" (my mom's mom "slowed down" when she got older - we went with an "opposite nickname"). Congrats on being a Grandma!
