Foster Question. What do foster children call (address) foster parents as?

I was just recently licensed as a foster home looking to eventually adopt. I have not yet received a placement yet. What do most foster parents have foster children call them (Mom/Dad?, by first name?)? Given that any placement will start as a foster situation that may only be temporary, it would probably be awkward for the foster child to say Mom/Dad to the foster parents. I am sure this question has been asked in the past, but I was unable to find any similar posts in the archives.
