How did you decide what your kids call your parents?

Question

Did your parents choose what they want to be called? Or did you choose? 
Asking bc I’m super annoyed at what my parents want to be called. (Hormones maybe). 🤰🤦🏽‍♀️😑

Answer

I don't think you get to pick. the kid should cal them what they want. I don't think they should encourage what they want either.. what do they want to be called?

Answer

My children will learn to say grandma and grandpa lol

Answer

People should get to chose what other people call then surely? Unless they call themselves Mummy and Daddy I would refuse to go along with it but as a person I wouldn't be happy with someone telling me what I have to be called.

Answer

Grandma & grandpa for both sets of grandparents and his great grandma is gram gram

Answer

We just called them grandma and grandpa unless they asked to be called something different. We didn’t ask their preference. My grandma wanted to be called gg instead of great grandma but that’s the only change. This baby has a different father and he called his grandpa “pap” which I really don’t want to do so I’m not going to ask lol

Answer

Both our parents already have grandkids from other siblings so they’ve chosen what they’re to be called. I don’t care because it’s not my name lol...we have Mimi, Grammie, Nonnie, a close friend of the family who’s like our mom is Nana, great Gmas: one is Nannie and one just Grandma, and then there’s Papa. Really though whatever your kid wants to call them/ends up calling them is up to the kid 🤷🏻‍♀️ my grandad before he passed was always papa until I got older and then it was Pop.

Answer

My grandparents in both sides were nanny and poppy. I love it. My parents will be that but my husbands parents will be polish and aboriginal words for grandmother and grandfather.

Answer

My son calls my dad pop-pop. Calls my mom nanny, calls my grandma Mawmaw, her boyfriend is papaw, and my husbands dad is d-pa and his mom is Mimi. It's crazy he remember all of them and who's who.

Answer

My parents chose. But we were ok with it (nanny and grandpa.)
