I can't remember if this question was asked before, but I was just thinking about this last night...
What do you call your FMIL? Will you call her something different after the wedding?

Re: What will you call your FMIL?
my FILs want me to call them by their first name, but Im not comfortable with that...They will always be Mr. and Mrs. _____. When I am talking about them (when they are not present) I refer to them by their first name...they will NEVER be 'mom and dad'.

I call his mother and step mother by their first names. Wouldn't feel comfortable calling them mom i don't think.

I call his parents by their first names. From day one that is how they introduced themselves. FH has always called my mom and step dad by their first names too.

i call his parents by their first names and it will probably stay that way, unless they say something to FH that they don't like it.

Re: What will you call your FMIL?
I've always called her by her first name.... and continue to do so. However, I've called her 'Mrs. S___' a few times after the wedding in a joking way so she could then call me 'Mrs. S____' right back

I was calling her Mrs. G_____ but she told me not to recently because she's divorced. So she told me to call her Michelle, her first name. I think I might call her mom once we are married.

First Name. No one else gets to be mom (or dad!) Nope. FH can call my Mom First Name as well, although he doesn't now... he could.

FH's mom signs everything to me 'Ma' but I cant call her that. I only have one mom. So honestly, I dont call her anything. LOL

Re: What will you call your FMIL?
I hate calling people Mrs. so and so. FMIL introduced herself as Mrs._____ but I just called her Joan because it's too impersonal. She asked me to call her mom but thats weird in a way, when she calls my phone she says 'hi it's mom' Im working on calling her mom.
His grandparents I have always called Grandma and Grandpa and they always loved it. I never had grandparents so it just feels normal.

Re: What will you call your FMIL?
FMIL brought up to FH she's upset that I never call her 'MOM' well that's cause you're not my mom.
Besides this a woman unfit to be a parent to begin with.
I'll call her by her first name and that's about as close as we can get.
Although I do have a few choice names for her... but LIWeddings will *** them out if you know what I mean

And I was serious too....When she signs cards she writes 'love mom & crazy sue' the mom is for FH and the other is for me. See, I wasn't lying when I said my FMIL has issues!
