What title do you use??? Also includes Gramps or Granddad?? Karen

My mum was Nan to my daug, hubbys mum is Nana! And she had 3 granda's Karen Unfortuately all my grandparent died before i was born so have no experience of what they would have been called.

i was brought up by my grandparents,and i called them mam jones,and dad jones...it caught on,cos the whole village started calling them the same. bryan.

That is bewildering Bry!! But a lovely term of endearment for the other kids to follow suit! Karen

I'm Gran. My daughter's mother in law is Grandma and my mother in law (great grandmother) is Nanna. Grandad's with first names. Magsx

Why are men just given the one title?? Granda Fred Granda Charile and Granda Billy?? Karen

I had Grans and Granda's for Grandparents and most Great Grandparents except one.... My Granny's dad....he was my Grandpa!! I now call Granny, Gran and when my kids were little they called her Granny but now its just Gran, the youngest even calls her Gran because he hears all the others say it. My mum is Nannie to all of mine and my dad is Grandad. Mother in law is Nanna and father in law is Pop. My step dad is Papa but he has always been in their lives. Step mum only married Dad 5 year ago so doesnt get a title. I want to be Gran when its my turn... everyone says it sounds old but I like it... mum wanted Nannie coz she said she wasnt old enough to be a gran!! Shaz xx

I called my Dad's parents Grandma and Pop. I can't recall what I called my mother's parents her Mum died when I was two and her Dad died when I was about five but I think I called him granddad. My Mum's grandmother I remember calling Granny.

I remember using Grandma for my mom's mom, and Gran for dad's. My daughter made the difference by using little grandma, and big grandma, or used their surnames, I didn't fancy Grandma myself, our gorgeous girl is lucky enough to have three great-grans - one gran, one gamma, the other granny, all the men are grandad, she dubbed me Nanna, Bilal gets 'Dede' and she thinks we live in the computer!

My two have always called me Nanna but now that he's older my grandson always calls me Nan. June xx

I am MaMa...(pronounced mar-mar) When he first started to talk,,,my little grandson couldnt say 'grandma'' and this was there nearest he could manage,

Hi I'm Nanny, her other grandparents are Nanny Joyce, and Gramps. and the great grandparents are Big Nanna And Pop, they chose it lol sandra

I am Granmum, hubby is Grandad. When our grandson was little, he looked at my parents in law and said 'More Grandad', so that's what they are referred to, 'More-Gran and More-Grandad' and my mother is Gran. My own grandmother was always Grandma.

I used to call mine Nana and Grandad.I dont know if it depends where youre from,everyone I knew in Sunderland said Nana and Grandad,while my other half from down south used to call his Gran and Grandad Anna :-)
