I always quietly mocked kids who had different names for their grandparents when I was young.  I have never understood why Grandma and Grandpa weren’t sufficient. I mean you don’t let your child call you “moogu”.  You keep reinforcing that your name is mama and then mom.

Well, now I’ve changed my stance a little bit.  I’ve realized ma and pa are just as much as a made-up slang term as babas, for grandma.  That and one of my nephews calls my dad “put”, which is just about the best name for grandpa, I’ve ever heard.
