I have a Mammaw, but it is because my big brother couldn't get out Grandma.

Both of my grandpas were Pawpaw. My husband called his Grandpa Poo-paw.

My Dad's mom is Nanny. She wanted to be called Nan because she thought she was too young to be a grandma but my brother thought she would be Nanny.

In the Hill Country there is a large German influence so there are Opas and Omas. Opa is really fun for kids to say it seems by watching my nieces.
