What do Sicilians call their parents?

I didn't know that in Sicily they use papà. In Sardinia on the contrary, no one says "papà". In Sardinian language we use "Babbu", and automatically we translate it in Italian as "Babbo". Often when speaking Italian we also use "padre", but not when speaking Sardinian, because "padre" means monk.
