I call my mother "mom" or "ma" - I don't remember calling her mommy - though I'm sure that I did when I was younger. My step-dad I call "Dad" because he's always been a bigger part of my life than biological father. My real dad - when referring to him - I call "MY dad". I don't think it's odd that your kids are calling you "mommy" and "daddy" though I know lots of people who are older and call their parents that.
What's odd and semi-unnerving to me is when kids call their parents by their real names...to me it seems like they have a stand-off'ish relationship.
