News of the grandchild's birth was barely out before people started asking what I wanted to be called. I thought the first grandchild named the grandparents, but my friends don't agree. They think I need to choose. Must say I'm in no hurry to be known by a different name.

What do you think? Who decided on grandparents' names in your family?
And what are you called?
