    I have 4 grandchildren. The three older ones each call me something differrent...Nana, Nanny, Nina. The other is only a month old. It will be interesting to see what she calls me. Hubby is Papa to all of them.

    My 'grands' call me "Oma". It's the German for Grandmother, But that's not why it was chosen. When my oldest grandchild was born, my son asked me what 'Grandma' name should she use. I told him I'd think about it.

    A couple of days later, I gave him my two choices. "G-Ma" or "O-ma", and explained that I was already used to both those names since he and his sisters had been using them for over 20 years.

    His response? "Well, gee, Ma! What did you expect us to call you?"

    To which I replied, " I rest my case!"

    He chose "Oma."

    It's my favorite name.

    My DGD called me Memaw when she was younger but now calls me GrandMa. She calls my dad Pepaw. She calls her other grandma Grandma. She lives far away and can only see her once a year. When she comes to visit I am called "real Grandma". Makes me feel bad for her other grandma. Guess she calls me that because she and mom live with me.

    I'm Granny and my husband is Pop. Pop-O and Great Grandmom are the great grandparents. I think my father is Pop-O because he sings the Old McDonald song and says E-I-E-I-Ohhh.
