Grandad or Granpop or Granpa or...

[rich p]

...something else?

My son and his girlfriend produced our first grandchild yesterday afternoon. Now a bit of a dilemma as to my new title....
Here's little George with his dad, Will

GranP, surely...

Congratulations!

 

[Dave7]

Congrats.
I found it to be really true what they say.......you get all the best bits and can give them back so they get the worst bits........selfish but sooooo good!
I am Grandad and the wife is Nana.........at first the oldest couldn't say Grandad so I became Gwandrad and this passed to all 3 of them (until they gat old enough......kind of like it really).

Grandad Rich in tha house!!

Congratulations Rich & family

Grumpa might be appropriate but my Dad was Granpop to my kids. I think I favour Grandad to suit my gravitas.

Like Arch's GranP, maybe GrandP? So when do the babysitting week-ends begin?

Congratulations!!!! You are entering a new era in your life, an era that only grandparents can understand. A wonderful era I think.

I had the same dilemma a year ago and when I suggested BIG Daddy my wife hit me over the head with a wet nappy. So I settled for Abuelo

Congratulations on receiving your reward for not killing your kids when they were younger

As said upthread,you get all the good bits now & have an excuse for having another childhood

I'm referred to as Grandad.

Yes, that's pretty much how it is for me. And you get a chance to play with all the toys that weren't around when you were a child
