we're still working on this. My mom has many grandchildren--mine makes #14, and 4 great grand children. She's always been "grandma" and as she's in Texas and I'm in Canada I'd like her to have that title to herself. So we may end up using the Chinese names for grandma/grandpa on my husband's side of the family.......the fun thing about that is that his parents are divorced and remarried so it would be 6 names for the poor child to remember (they speak different dialects and would have different Chinese names for each set of grandparents) plus it means me trying to pronounce 4 Chinese words
