    Mommyma and mammy!
  • I call my mother's mom: Mamaw, shes from Kentucky and I'm not really sure why I started calling her mamaw...maybe because I couldn't say "grandma". But I'm 20 and I still call her mamaw.

    I didn't have a grandma on my fathers side, she died when he was three.

    I called my great grandmother (my dads grandma) grammies or grammy.

    And my other great grandmother (moms side) we called grannie and in secret we called her grannie grumps because she was always so angry or grumpy lol.

    I also have a godmother who was sort of like a grandmother almost, and I've always called her Nana.

    Nanny and Grandma in my family, Nanny never let me call her 'Nan''. As I grew older, I became accustomed to calling Grandma 'Gran' as we lived together for a while and it was easier, but I'm the only grandchild to have changed it.

    I couldn't pronounce when I was a baby "Grandma in California" so I called her "Grandma Fornia" and to this day, she is known as that to all of her grandchildren.

    My other is just "Grandma [last name]"

    My mom is "Nana" and my son has a hard time with "gr" so he says "Mar mar" hahah I have no idea why, but my mom loves it!
