I dislike nan nanny etc so much - but it is what they want so ho hum

Me too. I'm fortunate - mine chose Anan as my 'grandparent name'. I hoped for damawyn (cornish for grandmother). But as my own grandmother used to say 'they can call me anything they like as long as it's not late for tea'.

Granny 2 congratulations wow another one.....

Congratulations Piskie! I got the 'Hello Gran' text too, but immediately sent one back saying 'I think you'll find it's Nanny' (a certain Mrs Ogg is my role model). He's 4 now and I still get all teary when I remember the first time he said Nanny. We seem to be getting a grandchild a year at the moment; that's the trouble when you have your kids close together, you end up with a deluge of grandchildren all at once. Our next one is due in mid-November and then the one after that in April.

Congrats Piskie, I think 'nana' sounds quite sweet although I'm glad I'm never going to be called it! You'll have to get the little one to call you Nanny Piskie when he/she comes along! Never mind 'knitting makes you sneeze', get some non-allergy cotton & get your needles out!
