For exampl I like Vanaema but memme was always hard fro my kids to pronounce. I like Ema but that means mother in Estonian. Any more suggestions? I would really like to hear more options from Estonia. I have Scottish and Irish in me, and after reading this realize that Nana fits with both. What are the names for Grandma and Grandpa in Cherokee, anyone know?

I did not see India represented! My dad and grandparents grew up in Ireland and we called our grandparents gram and grandpa or gramp. My mother is Jewish so that is another story again. Mine was my Bubbee. Grandma was always Bubbee though.

Irish women are almost always a matriarch and you know the legends of Jewish grandmothers so I feel I really lucked out in having two cultural groups of strong women. Sadly, both my Bubbee and gram have passed on but I miss them every day! The same is true for my grandfathers!! He believes it may be French?

It has been fun reading all these sweet endearing names for grandparents. Funny, though, how kids so often come up with their own names for loved 0nes.

Here are some my favorites from my very American family. Does anyone know what language it could come from? For those of you who are interested: In russian, they say either baba or babushka. I know that because this is the case in croatian, a southslavic language that has quite a lot in common with russian. Having said this, im not completly sure, because im norwegian. Also, I have to words for the grandparents in romanian, if this is of any interest: For grandma, you could say bunica or bunicuta.

Bunicuta is however more tender and you might use this when talking to small kids. Like bunica, bunicul has its formal and informal forms. Again, this is very informal, used among family and people you know well. However, not all romanians do this. I know this because I have a great interest in romanian language and culture, and I also have friends in the neighbourig country of Romania, Moldova. I call my frisian grandparents Oatie and Opa it was easier than Oaheit and my other pair was Beppe and Pake.

Seeing as when my Beppe became a great grandma she didnt want to be called Oabeppe?

How to Record Your Grandma’s Stories

This is very helpful! My boyfriend is Spainard and Italian. Again, thanks! Slavic Susan. I decided to be called Gannie. MY son insists on spelling it Grammy. When I first decided on this name for my grandchildren to use for me, I was told that it was a Germany spelling for grandmother. Does anyone know this spelling, Gannie, and from which culture is it used? I did not want Nana since that was the name my stepmother wanted.

Called dads parents, buela Fina, from term abuela , spanish, and her name was Delphina. He was buelo Fino. I am soon to be a Grandma. But I would like a name that suits who I am.. I love the Grandma but it does not suit. Either does Nana..

I am soon to be 40 most people around me seem to think something funky,upbeat or Fresh would be appropriate.. Any ideas?? Thanks, Arnie. His other grandmother had the name of Nana. He suddenly came up with this for me. We have been living in the South for the past 6 years and we wondered if it was a Southern expression.

Any help would be soooo appreciated!! Thanks so much, Nanci I have lived in Indiana all my life and the majority of most Hoosiers call their grandparents Mamaw and Papaw. I have been a grandma for six months now to two grand babies who are not talking yet.

“Do You Want Something to Drink?” — Lessons from My Grandmother

I am happy with what ever they want to call me, it is just so great to have them. Being called grandma is not a label of being old, it is a respectful name. I am 40 and would proudly go by that name. I raised my three children an have earned a name of respect, not some name that has no real meaning in my american life. If your culture has a name for grandma, then that is what you should go by. They may not say your name right anyways in the begining, so you can stick with the baby name or pick the name they will feel cofortable calling you as an older child.

I think if you have fond memories of your grandparents you should go by thoes.

I have just looked on your website to try and find a name suitable for my brand new granddaughter to call me. I am 44 and everyone else tells me that I am too young to be a Grannie. My mum is scottish and my dad english. Babies dads mum is Nana, my mum is Gran, my mother in law is Grandma. My dad always referred to her as his mother, not my grandmother, but when I think of her or refer to her, I call her Grandma or Grandma Cook. No idea what my husband wants to be called — our daughter just got engaged.

Was interested to see Tadig is Breton for grandfather. These are all wonderful ideas…anyone have any ideas about Thailand? What doe Thai kids call their grand-parents? Putri means Woman or Princess. My inlaws are of french and slavic descent. Please note that while I am descended from the Eastern Band of Cherokee, I do not fluently speak the language and have relied on a Cherokee-English dictionary to help me. This means that there may be differences between pronunciations.

There is also other forms of the word, such as: my grandmother- vgilisi uh-gee-lee-see my grandfather … vgidudi uh-gee-dew-dee.
