It isn't just a Southern tradition! I called my mother grandma all of the time once there were grandchildren in our family.

On my mother's side, we called our grandparents "Mamaw" and "Papaw." On my dad's side, we called them Grandma and Grandpa. Grandpa didn't mind it. But Grandma didn't appreciate it. She wanted us to call her Grandmother or Grandmama (emphasis on the last syllable.) But she was snooty.
