The child has begun referring to the grandmother as "Mimi," a nickname already claimed by the child's other grandmother. The daughter-in-law has expressed frustration over the duplication and has also prohibited the use of "Mom-Mom" as an alternative, citing its phonetic similarity to the mother's own title, "Ma-Ma."
