My nephews called their other grandparents Mamaw and Papaw, emphasis on the first syllable. I think they just call my parents Gramma and Grampa. Which is what I called all of mine.
The only unusual in our family is my father's maternal grandparents: Mormor and Pomps. Mormor is swedish,but I have no idea where Pomps came from. It has no relation to his given name, or the swedish for grandfather.
ETA: I am eating mashed potatoes with numb lips. They gave me Hydrocodone! I could become an addict, dude!
Not to scare flea, but I am STILL taking the hydrocodone eight days later. And I said something similar about this on facebook, but I don't know how people with chronic pain do it. I've been trying to avoid taking it but honestly, it hurts! And the vicodin makes me feel better!

This. (Except, Papa.)
It might have been Papa. He's been gone for a while, so I never really wrote it - just said it. (Chicago suburbs FTW!)
My mom is far too young (and looks younger than she is) to be Granny, but that's what she wanted.
Same with my mom. She suggested it as sort of a joke but it stuck and it suits her.
It is awfully cute to hear the little niece and nephew calling for Granny.
What's the difference between Mama and Momma? Is the latter pronounced Mom-Ma?
Interesting tagline you have there, Glamcookie.
My grandparents are Nana and Papa. Although I only have Papa(s) left.
GC, I can't resist saying congratulaions again, and I love the first picture of the Nugget!
