German for Grandmother, correct?

It also means “grandma” in German.

I know a ton of people who call their grandmother this. But people still use Poppy despite it being another name for a grandfather, and I’ll never understand that.

I’m pretty sure in some language this is a term for Grandmother or something but I forgot.

Either way, I prefer Uma. I would prefer Omari as far as spelling.

I've never heard of Naoma before.... I fear this name suffers a double whammy of unfortunate associations: Naoma sounds medical and Oma just means "grandma" to me.

It's "Grandma" (in at least Dutch and German) not a name to me.

I think of a grandmother

It's granny in German, if I'm not mistaken.
