I know of a case where the grandma wanted to be called "Nana" but since her granddaughter had a friend named Anna, the friend got called Little Anna and the grandmother got called Big Anna. Or you could cut the confusion and just go with Big Connie. You could start off with Nana and assume the kid will call you whatever he/she wants.

As the paternal grandmother-to-be here, I'm as thrilled about the baby as I was about the wedding. I thought I might use this platform to solicit opinions: what should the baby call me? My mom is Nana to everybody (even the hairdresser), so I can't usurp that; Grandma doesn't quite suit me, or at least I hope it doesn't quite suit me; Grandmother might require that long-overdue personality change. I'm considering Gram, which evokes not only white haired ladies but also Gram Parsons, grandfather,as it turns out, of alt country. Not much of a role model in terms of personal lifestyle, though. Any name suggestions for me and/or Duncan?
