How are they related to me?

Question

1. my dad's cuzin

2. my dad's cuzin's kid

3. my dad's cuzin's kid's kid

3. my dad's mother's sister

just what do i call them?

Answer 1

shirley is correct

Answer 2

Call them by the names your dad calls them.

When I introduce them, then I call them by what they are:

1. My dad's cousin

2. My dad's cousin's son/daughter

3. My dad's cousin's grandchild

4. My Great Aunt.

Answer 3

Shirley T is right, Shy Ann is wrong on 1 - 3. This assumes "My dad's cousin" is your dad's first cousin, no this second cousin or his third cousin twice removed.

1. my dad's cuzin = Your first cousin once removed.

2. my dad's cuzin's kid = your second cousin

3. my dad's cuzin's kid's kid = Your second cousin once removed. When you have children, your kids and this 2C1R will be third cousins.

4. my dad's mother's sister = your grand aunt or great aunt.

Call 1-3 all "Cousin" informally, or by the degree (1st, 2nd) and removed if you want to show off. Call (4) "Aunt" unless you want to make her feel old.

Answer 4

Here goes

1.  your dad's cousin  is your  2ND cousin

2. your dad's cousin's kids is your  3RD cousin

3. your dad's cousin's kids' kids  is your 4Th cousin

4. your dad's mother's sister is your  Great Aunt

So you can call them Cousins  or Aunt

Hope this helps you out

Answer 5

Edit: See link below, with chart                                                                                                                                     Your dad's cousin is your first cousin once removed.

Your dad's first cousin's kid is your 2nd cousin.  You  are in the same generation coming down from a common ancestor(your great grandparents) therefore, there are no removes.

Your dad's cousin's kid's kid would be your second cousin once removed.

Your dad's mother's sister who undoubtedly is your grandmother would be your grand or some would say your great aunt.
