My Dad and my brothers FIL both were called Poppy when his children were born. One was Poppy John (my dad) and one was Poppy Morrie (in-law). Worked OK for us.

My mum wants to be called Glamma as she says she is too young to be a grangma! although she is very much looking forward to it LOL
I agree with a few of the other posters that it's the grandparents choice.
That said, I really wanted my MIL to me Oma and I said things like "Oh, you'll be Oma now!" so I didn't really let it her be choice. But she was thrilled to be Oma so there was no issue anyway.
With my Dad he was already Grandpa out of a discussion with my sister who had his first grandchild. I wasn't sure if he really wanted to be Grandpa so I told him he could choose something else for our son if he wanted but he was happy to go with it. He would much prefer just his first name I think so he doesn't care about what title he gets.
