re: Do you call your parents "Mom and Dad" ?

Both are gone now but I called them momma and daddy and when speaking of them now still do. It was that way with most of the people I grew up with. As for the relatives it was Always Uncle (first name) and Aunt (first name) and still is at 48.
My daughter (17)calls the Wife momma but when she's pissed at her she tells me what "Your Wife" did. She's called me ChiChi from the time she could speak and recognize me. But NEVER our first names.

If you use their first names when did you start and why?

I never did. I am not a crazy person and my parents never did me wrong.

I call my brother Bub.

I called my grandparents on one side by their first names, I don't know why, it just happened that way.

We know why. It's not your fault.
