How about this one...
Mom and Dad. Or do some say Dad and Mom? Just sounds so much better the first way to *me* Grandma and Grandpa vs. Grandpa and Grandma Aunts and Uncles vs. Uncles and Aunts it's so interesting...all of this. I still think for *me* it is simply a matter of who i am closest to in the relationship...either family or friend.

Pop-Pop and Grammy Aunts and Uncles interchangeable based on blood relative being first.

We chose GemmEbon because Ebogemme sounded ridiculous (and like a weird toy).

Other than that: Never called my grandparents "grandma" and "grandpa" either. But it was always mémère (grandmother) et pépère (grandfather) but occasionally it was pépère et mémère. Either way I valued my maternal grandparents equally. In German it's always oma/omi (grandmother) und opa/opi (grandfather) instead of opa/opi und oma/omi for whatever reason. In Greek seems like yiayia (grandmother) always came before papou (grandfather). It's weird with aunts/uncles. In English I say aunt and uncle. But in French I always say mononc' (uncle) et matant' (aunt). Same in German (Onkel X und Tante Y vs. Tante Y und Onkel X). While in Greek I would always say thea (aunt) before theo (uncle). Odd... |
