My parents are called grandma and grandad(but jacob calls him ken sometimes instead of grandad)

My grandparents are called gran and grandad.

Hubbys mum is called nana, and her mum is called great grandma, it does get a bit confusing with jacob so great grandma gets called grandma foster sorta makes it easier for jacob.
my granparents live up in the north island and wer down here in southland

My Mum and Dad are Nana Apple (her last name is smith, so she would be a granny smith.........so we are going to call her nana apple!) and Pa
My Hubby's mum is Gran and his dad is Poppeye (he's a sailor man.....)

None of my grandparents are alive and Aaron's will be called grandma and grandpa like everyone else calls them.

My parents are nana and grandad since thats what my nephews call them.

DHs parents are nanny and poppa (at MILs request, DD is first grandchild) which is fine but I secretly hope DD calls her nana as I cant stand nanny (no offence to anyone out there that thinks otherwise, its just not for me as it sounds like, well, a nanny instead of a grandparent)

Not really sure what grandparents will be as yet. I have one set of grandparents (nana and grandad) and DH has a nana, a granny and a grandad.
All others are deceased.
