It's definitely a cultural thing because I had the same experience. Although, It think it's become more common to use different names for grandparents up north in recent years. My mom and dad, who have lived in Wisconsin their entire lives, are "Nana" and "Papa". Growing up I don't remember hearing anyone call their grandparents that.
