First thought, pappy.....or poppy but poppy may give you flashbacks :twisted: :lol:.....but I like pappy.

Second thought was trying to stick to the biker dude persona, papa G seems to fit.

I like Granddaddy because that always produces a different word from the baby. When they start talking and they can't say granddaddy then usually whatever the first grandkid says is what sticks. Caetie called my Dad, nana (nah-nah... like Sha Na Na). It was cute. That is a big ole word most kids can't figure out.

Congrats! I am Na'na and my dad is Pop to our 3 adopted grands... Na'na or Nana is a good choice very easy for them to say when they are young... Lexie's (6 years old now) first word was Na'na...but we had been practicing since she was about the size of a butterbean... Any of the suggestions would be fine (I like G-daddy...makes ya sound cool) but just don't let them call you "old man".... :D

My sister in laws grandchildren call her "amaw".
Reason being: her son would stand at the bottom of the stairs and call his mom saying, "Hey, Ma". The young grandchildren picked up on that and were hearing, "Amaw". :lol:

I know some neighbors who are from Germany and they are called, "Omaw" and "Opaw".

(All pronounced with long A's and O's. The "w's" could be "h's".)

What is that, his rapper name? P-Diddy, G-Daddy... a bit urban for a white guy from Florida, don't you think?

:lol: That's pretty good!

My mom and dad decided on Grandmomma and Granddaddy. Denine couldn't pronounce those big words so they ended up being "Ahmomma" and "Datdaddy" and believe it or not they stuck. Now, all of their friends and even some adults refer to them with those names....

And btw, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Well, grandparents spoil the grandkids. So, I vote for "Gimme". Chances are you'll hear that a lot anyway. :lol:

My parents are known by their grandchildren as "pepaw" and "memaw".

My Dad's oldest grandson started calling him Pop Pop and it stuck. I'm gonna vote for Papa-G because it sounds coo. My grandchildren call me grandma but the great grandbaby calls me G G.

Congratulations Scooter and Shellie - the fun really starts now.
