I couldn't  say Grandma so my Grandmothers were "Granny" according to my Mother.

 

My Stepdaughter's daughter had so many Grandparents with divorces and remarrages so went by Grandma or Grandpa and first name and some last name. People would ask if she knew all of their names and kept them straight and she did.

Grandma and Grandpa for us.  I was 48 when he was born 

almost 14 years ago and I could not wait to be Grandma.  It never made me feel old.

My grandson calls his other grandmother Honey because that is what he hears his grandfather call her. My neighbor's name is Judy; her grandkids call her GrandJudy and her husband is GrandBob.

I think they're both cute, fun and adorable nicknames for grandparents! ♥
