I like the ms and mr suggestion though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409943 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:25:58 +0000 wheres_c 409943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked the same question awhile ago, although my mom is married to my stepdad. We just havent had the best relationship. I still didnt decide on anything:( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409902 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:30:51 +0000 travelgirl1 409902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have this problem too but since my three nieces all call them by their first names, it's been taken out of our hands, phew! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409899 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:29:00 +0000 Sweet T 409899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go with Mr. &amp; Ms. like @chopsuey119: suggested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409893 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:26:13 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 409893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: that's cute!</p> <p>I have a step dad, and I think our LOs will end up calling him Gran-Dave! (his name is Dave of course) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409883 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:20:13 +0000 chopsuey 409883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coruscations: what about ms. Jane and mr joe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/names-for-grandparents-so#post-409879 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:16:18 +0000 coruscations 409879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our soon-to-arrive LO has a Grandma (my mom) and a Grandpa (DH's dad) who are still with us. Grandpa has a live-in girlfriend and Grandma has a long-term boyfriend. What should LO call them? It doesn't feel right to give them grandparent titles, but also strange to call them by first name only, when every other adult in the family has a title like "Uncle Joe" or "Aunt Jane". </p>
