Danni,

My bdaughter calls my parents (her bio grandparents) "Grandpa Bob" and "Grandma Diane."

I DEFINITELY think the bio relatives should keep their "normal" titles, the ones they would have if bmom kept the child. In an open adoption, bio relatives fulfill all the same roles they always would have, so there's really no reason to give them different titles. (With the exception of the birth parents.)

My bdaughter calls me just by my first name. And no, it doesn't hurt me that my parents and sister have titles, and I don't. Actually it would hurt more if Marie's aparents DIDN'T let my mom and dad and sis keep their titles...

Nicole
