He also decided last year that when he stays with my mam and dad that he will call them mammy and daddy, because "they are the mammy and daddy in their house". TOO CUTE!!

Oh Gosh that is so adorable.
My husband's dad tried FOREVER for our daughter to call him "PAPA" for some odd reason. I thought it was weird but whatever - I didn't really care. But we always referred to him at home as "Grandpa" (uh because that's what he is heh) so that's what she calls him. Funny part is - when she was little it came out sounding like "CRAPPA" which we thought was brilliant so we started calling him "CRAPPA" as well and to this day we all still call him "CRAPPA". Because we are mean and horrible people - yes.
We've decided to let them choose what they want to be called (fortunately I know that neither my mum nor DH's will choose Gigi!). OH's mum is likely to be Nana Mary as that's what happens in their family, my mum's not decided yet.
Don't know about OH's dad but my Mum's husband is going to be tricky. I lost my dad in January and Mum has just remarried. I guess we have to let him choose too but I want to be careful that my child learns about their real grandad. I don't know that I'm comfortable with Mum's husband being known as Grandad though. I know he's technically my stepdad but as I'm 32 I don't need a stepdad!
What DH's Grandad will be called I don't know either! He's just turned 94 and is partially blind so we're hoping that he'll be able to see his great grandchild
