My nan didn't want to be called Grandma because she thought it sounded so old so we had Nanny and Papa. I thought my parents would be the same, but they're calling themselves Grandma and Grandpa with my nephew...

Re: What will your child call his grandparents?
As of right now, our dogs 'call' my mother Gwammy (it's actually making fun of my aunt whose grandkids call her Grammy and it's all you hear out of her mouth every five seconds) ...

My sister and I used to call me grandfather Uncle Daddy becasue when my sister was born my grandfather thought that he was too young to be a grandpa so he made my sisdter call him that and it stuck

My kids call my parents Nana and Dziadzou (pronounced Jajoo, it is polish for Papa). I love these names they remind me of a nurturing couple, exactly what my parents are! They are total terms of endearment.
My inlaws are Grandma and Pop.

I have a Babci! It is my kid's great Grandma and they call her Babci too. My Mom is not polish, she is Italian/Irish, so she preferred Nana.
