What's your grandparent name?

Jack, our first grandchild, named us.
I'm Baba and Miz t. is Gigi.
Go figure.


Jack is 19 now, and we had a little talk a few weeks ago.

"Jack, you're about grown now. Is it a little embarrassing for you to still call me Baba?
If you want to transition to 'grandpa' or 'granddad' that OK with me."

"Nope, you're still Baba to me."
