ideas for names other than "grandpa"?
My dad hates the thought of being called grandpa & I am trying to brainstorm some of the other names out there. My grandpa (baby's great grandpa) goes by "papa" to me & just about everyone else who knows him lol so I want my son to know him as that as well.
Any ideas other than papa?

The little ones in my family call my dad mopa, short for motercycle papa. My first nephew came up with that one when he was two. We just shortened it to mopa. He loves it!! Is there anything special he likes that you can kinda make a name from? My dad always had dirt bikes and everytime my nephew saw him he had a motercycle so that's how he got his name...

My parents were weirded out by grandma and grandpa too. We're Hispanic so abuelo is grandpa and abuela is grandma. We shortened it and added an "L" so my dad is Lelo and my mom is Lela. That's what dd calls them and I'm sure every other baby will too :)
