What’s In A Name?

What will I be called? I know the parents of this grandchild might have a few names for me, but what about the grandchild? What will she (oops, I forgot to mention, they think it’s a girl) call me? I found a list of names:

Grandfather
Grampa
Gramps
Grandad
Granddaddy
Grandpa
Granpa
Granpappy
Grandpaw
Grandpapa
Grumpa
Grumps
Grumpy
Pap
pappy
PapPaw
Paw Paw
Papa
Pepaw
Poppa
Pops
Poppy

Papa is the most commonly used one where I come from and although some people might  think I should be called Grumps or Grumpa I think papa will do just fine. But who knows how it will come out the first time my grandchild speaks it. Find out here at “Papahood”
