Oh and the baby will be here soon. Still haven't figured out what I want to be called yet. Definitely don't want to be called Grandma.

Popular Ethnic Names for Grandmothers

These names are among those most frequently chosen just because they sound good and are easy to say and spell.
Filipino: Lola is the most popular grandmother name. Other names used by Filipinos include inang and its variations indang, nanang, ingkong and nanay.

• French: Popular choices are Grand-mère or Grandmere, but Grand-maman is also used occasionally, along with Gra-mere, Mémé, and Mamé.
• French Canadian: Mémé and Mamie are most often used by French Canadians.
• German: Oma is one of the most popular ethnic names for grandmother and is often used by grandmothers with no German heritage.
• Greek: Maybe because it just sounds joyful, the Greek YaYa is a popular grandmother nickname. It's sometimes hyphenated and sometimes rendered as YiaYia.
• Hawaiian: Tutu is often used for grandparents of both genders, although technically grandmothers are Tutu Wahine and grandfathers are Tutu Kane.
• Italian: Nonna is a popular grandmother's name, possibly because it is close to Nana and other familiar grandmother nicknames.

My Mom is Nona and MIL is Nana. Our next door neighbor is Mimi and I like that too. I had a Nonny/Nonnie and Grammy.

I like mimi. So it's gigi or mimi. Will bring these names up to my daughter when she comes over here today. ?

My MIL stated she is Granny and her boyfriends mom is going to be Nannie. Trying to figure out something that I'm ok with and it doesn't make me sound old. LOL

My dad's girlfriend's granddaughter calls her Mimi! That's pretty great!

Oh yeah, I forgot about my great-grandma. We used to call her "Big Maw" when we were little, but the older she got, the less she liked that. By the time I was in my 20s she demanded to be called "Mamaw" instead. She didn't like the implications of the word "big"

 

[Trucker]

Good Morning.

She wasn't, but she was worried that other people would hear us call her that and assume....she was very old, but spunky...

I chose Oma It is a comfortable name for me to be called without feeling like my life is over and a bonus is that the little ones could say it really early. I just really don't like any of the other options at all, especially "grandma" or "grammy" so I'm glad they are cooperating lol

Yea mine was broken. It's the "done writing" button that's messed up.

I put a note in the bottom section and use an "it's broke" script to submit it.
