4.0 out of 5 stars lots of different choices, August 14, 2009
This is a handy little book. The authors did extensive research to find out other names for grandparents, I would have liked some of the definitions to be a little more detailed, but all in all a great book--esp. for new grandparents to be. I don't have grandkids {yet}, but am seriously thinking about what I might want to be called...

4.0 out of 5 stars New Names For New Grandparents, February 16, 2009
Picking names for children to call their grandparents seems to be turning into a more treacherous task than it used to be. Being called "grandma" or "grandpa" might make you feel older than you think you are. Maybe you don't have ethnic tradition to draw from as I did with a Polish grandfather--jaja, and Italian grandmother--nana. So, in the tradition of the ever-popular baby name books comes /The New Grandparents Name Book/. There are traditional names, fun names (though I'm not sure what grandmother would want to be called Granzilla), personality, or interested-based names (Coach or Sunny), and a chapter on name pairs (for those grandparents that come in pairs)--Go-Ma and Slo-Pa.

More of a novelty item to give to first-time grandparents, but, for people who agonize over just the right name for their child, might find inspiration for just the right name for the grandparents.
