Whatever the family wants is best.
Sod all to do with anyone else.

Probably the children will come up with their own name anyway.

Perhaps she is hoping that the child will shorten it to mum.

It's awful. 'Granny' is the best.

No, but then families have all sorts of names for grans and grandads.
Grandmum sounds cuddly.

An aquaintance of mine is to be a new grandmother next year.

I congratualted her, and we got talking about what she will be called by her grandchild. 'Grandmum' she said.

I haven't heard of that one before. Anyone else heard of or are called by this name?
