Since both sets live overseas and speak Arabic, they call them Tata(GM) and Jeddo (GP).

My mom is Grandma and DH's mom is Grandma Claire. They try to call both just Grandma a lot, but it gets confusing so sometimes they try to clarify. They don't call DH's dad anything, but next week will only be their third time seeing him. I'm not even sure what to call him.

well, my kids have TONS of grandparents. A few have passed away in the past two or three years, but they made 5 generations 3 different ways. Now when you add DH's family in they have even more grandparents. I'll try to list them all.

Grandma Darla (my mom)
Pap (My dad - now passed)
Bob (my step-dad. he may eventually become grandpa Bob)
Grandma Teresa (their father's mom)
Papaw Jim (their father's dad)
Grandma (DH's mom....hey how come they got the simple ones? LOL)
Grandpa (DH's dad)
Nanny (My fathers mom)
Mamaw Dolly (my mom's mom)
Grandpa Gary (My mom's Dad)
EVIL ONE (My mom's step mom....no, they don't call her that to her face. She's just Wilma)
Nana (my mom's ex-stepmother. She is closer to us than the current step mom, and will always be nana to me)
Granny (my mom's father's mother.....now passed)
Grandma Nancy (Their father's father's mom)
Papaw Ed (Their father's fathers step dad)
memaw (nancy's mom, so fathers fathers, mothers mom....now passed)
Grandma Shartz (Their fathers mothers mom)
Grandma McAtee (DH's moms mom)
Grandpa McAtee (DH's moms dad)
Grandma Diane (DH's dad mom)
Grandpa Jerry (Dh's dads dad)
And finally
Papa Augie (my Dad's best friend, and my second father.)

Holy cow no wonder it's so confusing for them!

The boys call my parents grandma & papa, they call Dh's parents the same however DH's parents try to get them to call them Nana & pappap but my kids (well the oldest) thinks that's dumb lol! Apparently all the grandkids on DH's side call them that though I guess that's their thing!
