RE: Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night! - Admin - 15-02-2021
My grandchildren refer to us as Ma Ma and Ba Ba, name was given to us by our eldest grandson and stuck. Officially we are Grandma & Grandpops.
I was raised by my grandparents and they had the names Ma and Pops

Hi Jay nothing original in the names our family use.
I called mine Gran and Grandad
My kids called their gran Mamar
Grandkids call us Nanar and grandad.

I am know as Hairy Grandad and my wife is known as Grandma Woof Woof.
RE: Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night! - Jay - 15-02-2021
Great names, thanks all!
Yes Veggie, going to be grandparents next months for the first time. Although I may look like a granny I’m not sure I feel like one yet so just wondered if there were any alternatives out there!
Unfortunately looks as though we will be virtual grandparents for a while as my daughter and hubby live in England. Much worse going on for people out there just now so just grateful for FaceTime. x
RE: Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night! - Veggie - 15-02-2021
Congratulations in advance, Jay.
What would you like to be called?
RE: Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night! - Jay - 15-02-2021
I have absolutely no idea Veggie...I need to think of something soon or my son-in-law will come up with something and I can guarantee it won’t be complimentary!!

Are you "expecting" Jay??? Mine were Nana and Grampy, the other pair were Dead and Gone before I could talk!
Have fun whatever you're doing today .
Did Dead and Gone mind the names they were given do you know?
RE: Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night! - Veggie - 15-02-2021
No idea Mark, and its too late to ask them now.
The Grampy that I remember was very norty and would play tricks on my extremely deaf Nana. His favourite was putting a whoopee cushion on her chair when they were expecting visitors. She was sublimely unaware of the noises she was making, whilst the visitors were trying to keep a straight face - as were we, even though we were in on the act!!
