On DH's side, his cousins' kids call their grandparents Grammie & Grampie, which I think is cute

My grandmothers were both Memere (French-Canadian). My grandfather on my dad's side is Grandpa, and my mom's dad was "Appa," because that's how my older cousin said Grandpa as a toddler.

Both sets were Grandma and Grandpa

christieep · January 2011

My dad's parents: memere and pepere

My mom's parents: Grandma and papa (my grandfather was supposed to be grandpa but I was the first grandchild and I couldn't say grandpa, it came out papa and it stuck.

Also grew up with my mom's grandmother so I called her great grammy

Miss Shasta · January 2011

Both of my dad's parents died before I was born. My mom's parents are nannan and pappaw. The first two grandchildren called her granny, but then I came along & for some reason refused to call her anything but nannan, so that ended up sticking. I called my great-grandmother (on my mothers side) granny jane(which is her middle name).

alecat9 · January 2011

MY dad's side we called Gran and Pawpaw and my mom's were the standard Grandma and Grandpa.

Xan921 · January 2011

I've only got 1 grandparent still alive and that's my Mom's mom, and we call her Nanny or Nan; she's 89 and I'm pretty sure she's going to out live us all. When he was still alive, we called my granddad Pappy or Pap.

My dad's parents we called Grandmommy and Granddaddy.

And Jason's grandparents we call Nana and Poppop

shellbell026 · January 2011

My mom's parents were Grandma and Grandpa.

I don't know my dad's side

My kids call DH parents Grandma and Grandpa and my parents Nana and Pop Pop.

RavenBeautie · January 2011

My parents are in their 60's and were both the youngest of 4, so all of my grandparents are passed away.

My mother's mother was Mom-Mom, and her father was Grandpa. My dad's mother was Grandma Nell, and his father I never knew. He died when my dad was 15.

kttest · January 2011

Great question!

My mom's parents were: Grama and Pop-pop

My dad's parents are: Grandma or DeMa and Grandpa.

I was lucky enough to have all 4 grandparents up until 2 years ago. My mother's mother had been sick for years, so it's like we lost here way before she passed. We all thought she'd be the first to go, but my Pop-pop ended up passing suddenly 3 months before she did. The weird thing was that she passed on what would have been his 86th birthday. We all felt she kind of waited for the day. I was so grateful that at least one set of my grandparents were around to see me get married.

Cesare only has his mom's mom left and we call her Nonna. Unfortunately she lives in Italy, so I've only met her twice, but she is the sweetest thing.

becca474 · January 2011

both were just grandma and grandpa.

DH calls his grandmothers grandmom though. I thought it was so cute the first time I heard it.

klynn86 · January 2011

My Mom's parents were Grama (or Gram) and Pa (he died when I was 6)

My Dad's parents were Nanny and Poppa

Dyork · January 2011

'eh I was boring. Both sets were called Grandma and Grandpa.

I only have my dad's father left, and as I've grown more obnoxious over the years I call him G-pops.

msmerymac · January 2011

Grandma and Grandpa.

I only had one grandfather. My mom's mother died when I was 3, but she was Grandma Betty and my dad's mother was Grandma or Grandma Sis, which was her nickname.

Bre2Be · January 2011

I was very close with my dad's mom who helped raise me as a yound child. She was Meme (yes, with that spelling). Her husband died before I was born.

On my mom's side, I had Meme Joyce and Granddaddy Don.

We were just talking about this recently because my mother doesn't like any of the names for her to be called once it's time for us to have children. I told her she better get used to being called Meme because it will be her turn before long!

gretchen333 · January 2011

Mothers side: Grandma and Grandaddy

Dads side: Mammaw and Pappaw

Hubby's mom already is "Meme" to her grandkids, so I assume she will get that one. I think my brother's kids call my Mom Grandma, so there you have it.
