Grandma is a common noun unless it is being used as a form of address or title.

'Is grandma a common noun?' is itself a good example of grandma being used as a common noun.

It becomes a proper noun if it is being used as a title, and could be replaced by the person's formal name. Thus,

"My grandma is very old," is still the common usage, you could not directly replace 'grandma' with a person's name. But,

"Across the road is Grandma's house," is the proper form of the word.
