My Mom's dad was Big Daddy. My Dad's dad passed away long before I arrived.

I called them Grandma and Grandpa and with great respect. They were born in the late 1870s and early 1880s. My fraternal Grandfather spent considerable time with me teaching me life skills like Christian ethics and morals.

mom's side, Pops and Gram Pops was born in 1906, one of the sweetest, best guys to ever grace this planet
dad's side Grandpa Troy, and Grandma
edit to add: also knew my great grandad, Pops' dad, he lived by himself until he died at 99 years of age, he must have been born around 1865 or so

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Never knew either, but they were referred to as Pa and John Tom.

Grand Daddy and Grand Mother on both sides.
In fact, neither of my Grand Mother's would even allow Grandma. NO!

Grand-dad or Pop suffices in Australia.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Grampa, both sides. Paternal grandfather was born in 1901 or '03, maternal grandfather in 1907, I think. Both lived into their nineties, as did my paternal grandmother. Maternal grandmother died at 89, she almost made it to 90. Great Grandmother on Dad's side died at 96.

Holly [bleep]! You really DO come from a modern family! That's debatable. My wife sure thinks I'm an anachronism. Actually, my mom's patents died before I was born. Grandpa was born in the year 1900. Dad, 1939. Me, 1976.

Granddad on my father's side born 1900... Popsey on my mother's born 1905. Both great guys.
My dad is granddad to his grandchildren, figured I'd be too... my daughter said no way pick another, she's not too fond of my dad.

Papaw on both sides, one born in 1927 and the other in 1906.
I also knew one great grandfather, he was born in 1907.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

Grampa for both. They were both born in the 1880's.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.
