Best Answer

Barack Obama had two grandmothers-- the one who helped to raise him in Hawaii, and with whom he was very close, was his maternal grandmother, Madelyn Dunham. (His nickname for her was "Toot," short for the Hawaiian word for "grandma.") His paternal grandmother lived in Africa; her name was Habiba Akumu Obama.

Obama's kenyan grandmother's name?

You may be referring to Sarah Obama, who is not really the president's biologically grandmother, but was sometimes called "Granny Sarah" in Barack's family. The president's actual paternal grandmother is Habiba Akumu Obama. The reason many people ask about Sarah, however, has to do with a Birther myth that she said Barack was born in Kenya. She did not say that. The link that refutes this myth is enclosed.
