When my grandson David started to talk my daughter asked me what I wanted him to call me. I had no idea. Grandma and Grandpa was what I called my mother’s parents, so I didn’t see it as such a big deal. David’s other grandma is Mimi, and so my daughter thought I should have a special name. I was anxious about the decision, and even got a bit annoyed with my daughter. One day on a walk with David I looked at him and asked, “What’s my name?” and he said clearly “Nana Rona.” I smiled with relief, knowing that he knew who I was.

My mom is called Nana and gets mad if strangers call her a grandma. Yes it is an age thing she does not want to old enough to be grandma (I am in my 30s so she is old enough to be a grandma)
