Does anyone's LO call their grandparents something different than one the grandparent intended to be called? Like they pronounce it funny or whatever... tell us about it!

He doesn't really call his other grandparents anything because he doesn't see them very often but he calls my mom "Ma" which isn't much of a stretch because she goes by the Icelandic word for Grandma which is "Amma".

No, she calls them all by the names they intended, or that the other grandkids use: Nai Nai for my mom, Grandma and Paw Paw for DH's parents. She rarely sees my dad, but he would be Grandpa. Oh, and she calls my grandad Grandad.

My dad goes by "poppy" to all of his grandkids, but Trey calls him "Pop-Pop". My dad eats it up and thinks its the cutest thing.
Trey calls him that, because he thinks that everyone's name is just a double sound. lol "mama", "dada", "TreyTrey", "nana", "KayKay" (my neice kayla), "MalMal" (my niece mallory) he even calls my aunt, "PatPat" (i guess he thinks i'm saying that, instead of "Aunt Pat").

Major calls my Dad "grampa" and says it perfectly. He calls my mom "gram" for some reason but will say "gramma" if I refer to her as that.

Lily still isn't talking as much so she calls my mom and ben's mom, both of which want to go by 'grandma' ... she calls them both 'ma.' its kind of annoying how much my mil likes it  but she calls me mama so at least there's some differentiation.

Since Morgan is a second child she doesn't get to name the grandparents lol. Blair was the first on both sides. She went with the names the grandparents picked. My mom is sug, my dad is granddaddy, dh mom is mawmaw and dh dad is pawpaw. Sh renamed dh grandmother. We were just going to call her mawmaw too since that's what his whole family calls her but Blair called her thib thib. It kinda stuck and lots of grandkids have picked it up. She couldn't say my mawmaws name. We called her mawmaw fontenot (font-no) but Blair would say mawmaw fat toes.
Morgan doesn't say my parents names or the greatgrandparents names. She says mawmaw and pawpaw. For some strange reason she says pawpaw in a deep manly voice lol
