I always knew it as Taid (pronounced tide) for grandfather and Nain (pronounced nine) for grandmother. Whether or not there is more affectionate names as nanny etc or equivalent I am not sure.

I never knew a granddad but my grandmother was always called {'Nin';} a corruption of Nain I assume. (Wrexham - North Wales)
