call my mother mam and my father dad but if i'm talking to someone about them i'd say 'me ma' for my mother and 'me da' for my father like 'me da is collecting me'!
don't really know why!lol!

I think very few people pronounce it 'Mum', but rather say 'Mom' instead.
And Dad for the father. No-one calls their father Pa!
In some areas, Ma,.Mam and Da are used.
