| More GRAND "G" Nicknames Here! |
Gammy
When my oldest daughter was born, I was lucky to still have my grandmother
living; Ellie called my mom "Mamaw" and my grandma "Nanaw".
Now that Ellie has made me a grandma and I am lucky enough to still
have my mother living, my grandma nickname is "Gammy"
which allowed my mother to remain "Mamaw" to our beautiful
boy Benjamin. I also must add, my husband is a proud PapPap! :)

Gramma Jamma
My grandchildren live in another province and have several sets
of grandparents. To keep us straight my daughter invented names
with associations.
When I was visiting the children when they were very young, we had
a race to see who could get into their pajamas first so we could
have a pajama party. Voila – my name was crafted and it stuck.
