"Mam" is commonly used in the north of England, particularly among the working classes. "Mum" is used and acceptable.
No-one I know above the age of 5 ever says "mummy".
There are exceptions to this rule, especially if you're looking to get your head kicked in.
"Mummy" is typically southern and upper/middle class and very gay.
