Speaking with host, Ebro Darden, Ariana said it was her brother, Frankie, who was behind the change.

She explained that her brother changed their surname to 'Grahn-day' because he felt 'Grandey' was the "Americanised version of it."

"It made it more, like, chill whatever.”

“And then my brother was like ‘We should say ‘Grahn-day’. It’s so fun to say it. It’s like funny, it’s a funny name.”

However, Ariana added how she wants to say “Grandey” more because it reminds her of her late grandfather.

Ariana's new album Sweetener is out now.
