I grew up in Minnesota. In my mind, the two games are completely different (and Grey Duck is a LOT more fun than Goose) and should be able to coexist peacefully. In Duck Duck Goose, the goose is the obvious odd one out. It sounds different, it looks different, it feels different to say. In Duck Duck Grey Duck, a rule is added: every duck has an adjective (eg. blue duck, green duck, spotted duck, orange duck, yellow duck, grey duck). This adds elements of creativity and stealth to the game.
