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?

pretty similar to my in laws and husband. my husband is also used to calling his paternal grandparents gong gong and ah po. I taught my daughter since birth to call yeye and nai nai instead. during every visit I will carry my daughter and say, this is yeye, this is nai nai. shes 10 months old now and eventually they called themselves yeye and nainai 😄
