What do you call your grandmother?

[JoanThursday1972]

I'm using the 'correct' term there, which I don't use, but the reason for asking this is I have heard of her being called "mamar" (not sure of spelling) and I've never heard it. Is it a regional thing?

Abuela (Spanish) and Grandma.

Nanna.

Grandma and Nana. But Granny, Gran and Nanny are common around here (Dublin)

Grandma or Granny.

Grandma and Granny. As teens we called Grandma G or Grundy.

Nanar - as in Nanar Joan and Nanar Barbara

Grandfather's were Grandy Tom and Grandy Joe.

From North Staffordshire.

*not their real names, obvs 😁

Both my Polish grandmothers were Babcia
I'm Grandma

Both died before I was born but my maternal grandmother was always referred to as nana and paternal grandmother as Granny.

Paternal grandfather was just Granda and and maternal was Granda Surname.

She was always Granny, my great grandmother was Nanny(even though my mum says it belongs to goats just like kids and it was her grandmother). My grandfather was always Grandpa.

I had a Grandma and Granny

My kids have a grandma, my mum, same as her mum. And 2 Nannies. We call the second one "nanny [name]" because she came into their lives second (husbands birth mum) but she was already a nanny to his sisters kids so we stuck with that bit!

Grandma and Granny or Gran.
DD calls my mum Granny. She called DH's mum Nana when she was alive.

Grandma and Granny.

I had two Glasgow grannies.

Mine were Nanna when they were alive.

Grandma and Nanna. North London and home counties. My cousin called the one I called Grandma 'MarMar' (I don't know how he spelled it but that's what it sounded like). I thought it sounded like a baby shortening, and a bit silly once he was older than about five though.

Nana for both parents mum and one great gran and the other great grandmother was also nana.

My mum is now nana and mil is granny.

Mine died in 1971. I called her granny.

One was Grandma first name, the other Grandma surname. I don't know why we were so formal with one.
