Hi all,

So, due to a few second marriages we have a couple of extra grandparents to name.

What are the names everyone is using for grandparents? Anything other than:

Grandma
Grandpa
Nana
Poppa
Gran / Granny.

???

Heh, my dad requested "sir". Somehow, it hasn't stuck

We have Nanny and Grandad (I loathe Nanny, but her choice, sigh), and Grandma and Grandpa. Not too original. I had friends growing up who had Nana Mary and Nana Jane etc to distinguish between their nanas if that could work?

We have a split up grandparents, but they are just Grandad & Susan*, Nana & Peter*. We aren't that close to the extras, obviously.
*names changed
The other grandparents are Nan & Granda.
I also know of a grandad called Chiefy, which I think is cute, and also a Nanma & Pappy.
