PIL naming Convention

My PIL want my newborn to call them gong gong n mama even tho I previously said the convention was yeye and nai nai, and that my parents will be gong gong and popo. I know people who call their grandma mama but I just feel sad and like won't it confuse the baby? Mama is me first? Anyone facing this issue? How to deal with it and teach baby? I just feel uncomfortable. If baby calls mama, he wld be calling me, not her?

my MIL also wishes to identify herself as 嘛嘛.. its slightly diff pronnounciation vs 妈妈. im getting my bb to address me as mummy so it doesnt bother me. I would suggest give and take.. as long as everyone dotes n loves my bb thats what matters most. bb will know definitely know who mummy is afterall, they were in our tummies for 9 mths😍
