Inlaw and names

Original post by Eireann

What will everyone be calling their new inlaws once you are married? I currently call them Mr and Mrs C*******...but I don't think that's going to work once I'm Mrs. C*******!!! I don't know if I'm comfortable calling them Mom and Dad either since I kind of feel that I have only one Mom and Dad. My fiance is having the same issue so I told him I'd ask the board! What do you think?

I call them by their first names usually. Sometimes I refer to them as Mom and Dad though.

I call FMIL by her first name. However, I really don't call FFIL by anything! The reason for that is b/c he has already told me that he wants me to call him 'Dad'. I know he means well, but I really don't feel confortable doing that. And I think my Dad would be hurt if he heard me calling my FFIL dad.

Fh calls my parents by their first name and my grandparents he calls 'abuelo and abuela' (that's grandma and grandpa in Spanish)
