What do your grandkids call you?

No grandkids here yet.

I have a younger cousin who started calling his grandpa "Honey" for some reason. It was really cute when he was small, but became somewhat awkward as the young man grew up. However, his Grandpa, Jim, was Honey until the day he died.
 
When they're a little older and out of your hearing range, they might refer to you as the GPTM or maybe GTM. Grandparent Teller Machine.
 
Me POP Pop and create hats to mimic my English cap.🤪
Mom is Gigi ..Gigi is the Fav by far as usual 🥰
 
I wanted the little tyke to call me Judge LeGros but got overruled. So I picked my childhood nickname that hasn't been used by outsiders since I started school and the nuns insisted on no nicknames. So it's Jed for me and Mamere for the wife.
 
We wanted our grandchildren to be bilingual, officially, my wife is abuelita and I'm abuelito but those titles are difficult for really little children, so the adapted titles are "Ita" and "ito" the other grandparents are yaya and papu (Greek).
 
So far - with only two grandkids - we seem to be holding on Gram and Grandad. Moreover, I am blamed in the family for my maternal grandparents being stuck with Nanny and Boppy.

Our seven grand daughters and seven grandsons as well as our oldest great granddaughter all call us grandma and grandpa. Our youngest great granddaughter and our great grandson don't call us anything yet.
 
My daughter's girl calls me Pa Pa.
My sons girl and boy call me Frank
I'm OK with that because I don't call them grandchild I call them by their name.
 
Grandson, 16, calls me grandpa. Granddaughter, 18, calls me by my first name. My ex-mother-in-law was determined to specify what my son called her. Okay, but I let the grandkids figure it out and am happy with whatever they decide.
