Sharing is caring!

When you have a baby, you spend a lot of time thinking about the perfect name because it’s a name your child will have forever. That’s a lot of pressure!

Do you know what’s even more stressful? Finding out you’re going to be a grandma and having only nine months to pick what your new grandchild will call you.

Grandma names – just like first, middle, and last names – can be very different and show something special about each grandma’s personality. Have you ever thought about what your grandma name says about you? Let’s find out!

Grandma

Just like a classic 1934 Chevrolet Coupe, you are timeless and loved by everyone who meets you. Who needs a fancy name when you are simply “Grandma”?

Grammy

You could have easily gone by “Grandma,” but you wanted a name that stands out from the other grandmothers. Don’t worry – you’re still the favorite! So, “Grammy” it is, and “Grammy” it will stay.

Granny

“Granny” is another name for “Grammy.” (Here’s a little fact: If you’re called “Granny,” you might have chosen this name because you had a granny too and want to continue the tradition.)

Nana

If you’re called “Nana,” you’re the special grandma. Not everyone gets to be Nana, so think of your title like a crown you’ve proudly earned.

Nonna

If you chose “Nonna” instead of “Nana,” you are definitely Italian. Cheers, Dear Nonna!

Mimi

“Mimi” is as easy to say as “mama,” which makes it a great name for a grandma. Mimi is the fun grandma who loves to jump in puddles, climb rocks, and ride roller coasters with you.

Oma

You’re super German. Even if you’re not from Germany or haven’t visited, you have German roots, which is why you’re called “Oma.” It’s a cool and unique grandma name.

Gigi

You might be a grandma or even a great-grandma. Either way, “Gigi” is a classic name that’s easy for little kids to say. This makes you a winner in everyone’s eyes!

Queenie

Fix your crown, Queenie, because your grandma name is as royal and spectacular as you are!

Glam Ma

This name became popular when Goldie Hawn chose it for herself instead of the traditional grandma title. Glam Mas are usually glamorous (it’s in the name!) and often younger. They love their grandkids dearly and teach them the importance of style.

Abuela

Isn’t it great to be called “Abuela”? You are the leader of your family. It’s your job to teach your grandchildren about your family’s culture, traditions, recipes, and beliefs. You show them what it means to be part of your family.

MomMom

You were a fantastic parent to your grandchild’s parent, and now you’ve earned a new title! You’re not just a mom; you’re “MomMom.” It sounds pretty nice, doesn’t it?

Martha

You must be Martha Stewart, who prefers to keep things formal by having her grandkids call her “Martha.”

Other Grandma Names

If your grandma name didn’t make the list, that’s okay! You are creative and unique and don’t follow the usual rules. Good for you, Kiki/Loli/Memaw—or whatever your special grandma name might be.

Did your grandma name make the list? Which one are you? No matter what you go by, remember that you are loved and valued, and your name is as special and unique as you are!
