I opted for Grandma after my first grandaughter was born. Her other grandmother is called nanny by her other grandchildren, and because she is shorter (and slimmer) than me I thought I would inevitably be called "Big Nan." However, she couldn't say "grandma" and called me "mam-ma." Now that's what everyone calls me. Ironic, because my first choice of name was "Mamie', which is what my French cousins calls their grandmothers, and what I really wanted to be called, but it was vetoed as pretentious, as was "nonna."
