According to a USA Today article, In August, Susan Sarandon’s daughter welcomed a baby girl, Marlow Mae. But Sarandon won’t be going by Granny or Grammy or Grandma. Marlow will call the 67-year-old actress Honey.
Whether it’s Honey, GoGo (Goldie Hawn), Jefe (George W. Bush), LaLo (Blythe Danner), Nana, Gigi, or Mimi, more grandparents are eschewing the traditional monikers to embrace something personal. As national Grandparents’ Day approaches on Sunday, Sep. 7, modern grandparents are redefining their roles — starting with nicknames.
“Grandparents want to see themselves as younger and cooler than their own grandparents were, and these new names are symbolic of those changes,” writes Pamela Redmond Satran, creator of Nameberry, in an email.
Roseann Shaiman worried about seeming old, especially because her husband, Alan, teased her by calling her Granny. She thought Grammy sounded OK, but her oldest grandson, Daniel, now 5, struggled to say it. One day Daniel heard his grandfather call his grandmother Ro, which the boy turned into RoRo.
