Great grandmas [name_u]Marie[/name_u], [name_f]Susan[/name_f], [name_f]Elsie[/name_f], [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f]
Some big generational differences time-wise though, e.g. one grandma 20 years older than the other, so great grandma differences probably even bigger as one side had children younger and the other tended to have them much later.
[name_f]My[/name_f] paternal grandparents were born in the late 1890’s

[name_f]My[/name_f] grandma on my father’s side was [name_f]Inez[/name_f] (pronounced EYE-ness. [name_m]Born[/name_m] in upper Midwestern states of US with [name_m]German[/name_m] heritage). Her mother’s name was Geertje. She was called [name_f]Gertie[/name_f]!
[name_f]My[/name_f] grandma on my mom’s side is Carmeen. Melting pot heritage for the Midwest (Norwegian, [name_u]Irish[/name_u], [name_u]French[/name_u], danish etc to name a few) and we’re all frankly certain her mother, my great-grandma Georgia) either came up with the name on her own or somehow just heard of it!
