I have often wondered what do the grand children of royals call thier grandparents, such as what do Prince Henrik get called by Christian and Isabella?
Elizabeth II: I think I read once where William had referred to her as Granny
Somewhere it was mentioned that William used to call his grandmother "Garry" instead of Granny
I heard somewhere (the BBC I think) that Prince Philip is known as Grandad but QEII is always know as Ma'm.

Possibly morfar (mother's father) and mormor (mother's mother) and for Daniel's parents farfar (father's father) and farmor (father's mother), the Swedish names for grandfather and grandmother.Estelle of Sweden can't talk yet but I wonder what she will call the King and Queen.

I've read a few of these posts. I wonder how many grand parent royals get called Nanna or Nanny.

I think the Amama and Apapa goes all the way back to King Christian IX and Queen Louise of Denmark I think, most of their grandchildren seem to have referred to them like that.
Princess Eugenie called The Queen and Prince Philip "Granny and Grandpa" in her recent interview, and used "Granny" quite a lot on "The Diamond Queen".William, at least calls Phillip Grandpa. You can just about hear it in this video when he greets and says goodbye to his grandparents who visit him at work.
