Grandparent Nicknames 🧦

on my dad’s side: nana & grandad
on my mum’s side: babcia & dziadzie (what i came up with/said when i couldn’t say dziadek properly as a little kid)

i think i’d like to be nan or nana!

We didn’t really have nicknames for our grandparents the way people do it today. The closest thing were my great-grandmothers, Grandmama and Nuni, but those were chosen by them and not the grandkids. We just said Grandpa and Grandma LastName.

[name_f]My[/name_f] parents and in-laws are grandpa, grandma and mamaw.

In the future, I’d love for my grandparent name to be organically chosen by my grandkids. I think it’s adorable when the kids try to say grandma and come up with something else that sticks.
