Oh man where to begin! Growing up I had a grandma & grandad my mums parents, pop & (first name) my dads dad & wife and narnee my dads mum who died before I was born & ma my mum grandma.
We are still figuring out way every1 is/will be called by DS... atm we have pretty much decided on grandma/granny and grandpa/pa (first name) for my mum & partner. Nanny & grandpa (first name) for DF parents and my niece & nephew already call my dad & partner poppy & nanna so we will stick with that for them.
It does makes life difficult when u have my mum, DF mum & SIL (who is pg) mum ALL HAVING THE SAME FIRST NAME! SIL family normally use nanna as well so we could end up with 3 Nanny/nanna is 1 extended family...
My fav nickname in our family was 1 of my cousins deciding pops name was boydie....cos he had a bird.... poor bloke went from being called grandfather by the older cousins to pop cos grandfather was too stuffy (blame my dad 4 that 1) to boydie in the space of 10 years lol
