    "Ma," "mum", "mama." "Mother" only when I'm really angry or mocking her, and I use "mum" often when I'm short tempered. It's more natural for me to say "mama" or "ma," which I say the most.

    And not asked, I call my father "isä" or "papa."

    Either her first name (done in a jokey way of course), or "mam".

    Since my parents are from Hue, which is in Southern Vietnam, I address my mom as Má. It sounds like "maa". Viet folks from the North say Mẹ instead.

    That's true I guess, but I only spell it "mom".
