What do your grandchildren call you?

I'm Nanny Noodles ?

my son refers to me as granny or gran when talking to his son who is only 19 months and not talking, i grew up with my granny, all the kids in the family call me by my first name rather than auntie or great aunt...that would make me feel ancient at 58 x

My GGC have 6 female grandparents, so 2granmas and 4 granny surname or christian name for the great grannys, this suits all and avoided confusion when smaller

I have four grandchildren. The eldest two call us Granny and Grandpa.
The younger two have speech problems, they call us Dandy and Dampa.
I like being Dandy, and will be a little bit sorry when they can say Granny properly.

The speech therapy is going well so we will wait and see.

I think my name gives a clue as to what my beautiful darling GD calls me. I don't feel like a dog! I feel loved.

We started off as Grandma and Grandad, but my DH somehow morphed into Grallag.

We are Granny ‘Christian Name’ and Granda ‘Christian Name’
and this goes for the other grandparents also.

Why when posters have already said they loved being called Nana & wouldn't call anyone for being grandma gran etc do some of you insist on saying such nasty things about children calling their grandparent Nana or Nanny?

Nain, pronounced nine, Welsh version, although apart from me, all family are English. Often get Naineeee when they want something, so I shortened my sign off in texts etc to 9E.

My GC called me Granny. But the older they get it has become Gran.

Mama

One of my grandsons calls me Nee and it’s stuck so I presume his younger sister will call me Nee she’s 1the other 2calk me granny

I’m Grammy, (for a long time it was bammy and I thought that would stick) and I love it. I think it’s fun and informal. My husband is Pops and he loves that too. The key is that it’s the love in the little voice that says it that’s the most important thing.

Mammar and Brandad ?

My grandson calls me Tessie. I'm very happy with that.

Granny and Grandpa. One set of DGC have the same on the other side of the family, but they sorted it out soon enough and if they need to make it clear which ones they are talking about, they just add the name of the towns where we live.

My grandson age 3 call me Nana and my husband Granddad. His other grandparents are Grandma and Grandpa. My one year old granddaughter says dada for all of the males and Mama mummum for all ladies.

My 5yr DGS has always called me ‘Nan’. He calls my mum ‘ Great Big Nanny’ and if ( those were the days!) we were all together I was ‘Tiny Nanny’ . At 5’9” and 12 stone I think he may have issues with estimating size! ??

My DD’s children call me Nanny. My DS’s children call me Grandma and sometimes, when he gets so excited to see me, my little GS calls me Grandpa! He gets in a muddle. He’s only five, bless him ?

Is there anyone out there called Grandma Chicken? MyDD2 taught a child who called one grandmother this because she always served roast chicken when they visited!

They call me Nanny and they used to call my husband Grandman no more Grandman sadly, I am sad for them that they lost their precious grandad

Sorry guys went into a different conversation

The Pioneer: Jill Howourth Location: Gateshead Tyne and Wear, England Official Start Date: 11th January 1999 The Occasion: The birth of her first grandson, Cian Goss, born to her daughter, Traci Goss. The Story: In January 1999, feeling far too young to be called traditional names like "Grandma" or "Granny," or "Nana" Jill Howourth independently created the name Marmar for herself. At the time, the name was entirely unheard of as a grandmother title in her community and across England., Scotland or Wales. Jill has been called Mar-mar continuously by her family for over 27 years. While the name has recently grown in popularity over the last 10 years due to modern naming trends and Scandinavian influences, Jill Howourth was the absolute first grandmother in England to invent and establish "Mar-mar" as a loving, modern alternative to Grandma.

This makes me so happy to learn of this
