Why do we refer to Aunts and Uncles by their first name, but not Grandparents or parents?

My nieces and nephew just say my first name. They do the same for my other siblings as well.
They never say “Aunt (my name)” just my name.
I also never refer to my Aunts as “Aunt (name)” I just say their name.
Would never call my parents by their first names, however. Not my grandparents in person, but when talking about them I say “Grandma (name)” so family knows which one I am talking about.
Why do we use first names for some relatives but titles for others?
Using Fluther
