I love Roy but also met such a cute little Percy last week. I like that too.

DH is a grandad and he's Kevin. DB is a grandad too and he's Iain.
But I don't suppose you'll be choosing either of those.

I think posters are going to have to start being more specific about what era they are going for.

Grandads in our family are now Andy, Nigel, Darren, Barry and Steve 😀

I think you might mean great grandads op.

Love that era of names but most grandads now are 45/55 starting age 😂

There’s a Bernard in my daughter’s class; it surprised me how nice it sounds when you aren’t expecting it.
