[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL goes by Nana and it grates on me, I just hate it, it's so pretentious. That is all, just a vent. Why couldn't she pick a normal name like grandma? [/quote]

It should not be an issue.  In DH's family, apparently the oldest grandchild named the grandparents, THEN that child's parent's took offense that the other grandchildren used that name, too.

And so it goes.

In my family (and every family I know), the oldest grandchild names the grandparents, and the rest of the grandchildren follow. No one looks for or finds offense. [/quote]

That happened with my kids-now adults-for my parents. MIL's was successfull adjusted because it came out as buga so for MIL+FIL used what the huge volume of older cousins used.   Nana is easy since it's an N instead of M-momma.  I had one.  My 1st to have a child adult DC+spouse have decided on names for all GP's.  No input from any of us.  I'm dealing with mine but DH doesn't like his.  Tough as far as I' concerned.[/quote]
