Aunts are sometimes called Auntie or Aunty. A man is a nephew to their Aunt and a woman is a niece. An aunt is part of an extended family. The child of an aunt's is a cousin.
An aunt is a woman who is a sibling of a parent or married to a sibling of a parent. Aunts who are related by birth are second-degree relatives. Alternate terms include auntie or aunty. Children in other cultures and families may refer to the cousins of their parents as aunt or uncle due to the age and generation gap.
Pibling; neutral, your parent's sibling. Auncle; queer, combination of aunt and uncle. Cousin; neutral, as sometimes people say aunt/uncle for parents' cousins, or much older cousins. Titi; neutral, from the Spanish for Aunt (Tia) and Uncle (Tio). (however, it is often a diminutive of aunt.)
The word uncle is the male equivalent, referring to the brother of one's parent or the male partner of a parent's sibling (your dad's sister's husband, for example). It ultimately comes from the Latin avunculus, meaning “mother's brother.”
Aunt is another one that's pronounced differently depending on where you're from: If you say it "ahnt" you're probably from Britain or one of just a couple parts of the U.S. (notably the Boston area). In fact, the "ant" pronunciation is the older one, but it shifted to "ahnt" in England after the colonies were settled.
As we've already mentioned, a first cousin is the child of one's aunt or uncle. You and your first cousins share one set of grandparents because you each have one parent who is a sibling of the other's.
Non-binary people are usually not intersex: they're usually born with bodies that may fit typical definitions of male and female, but their innate gender identity is something other than male or female.
Nibling is a gender-neutral term used to refer to a child of one's sibling as a replacement for "niece" or "nephew". The word is thought to have been coined in the early 1950s, but was relatively obscure for several decades before being revived in recent years.
Australia. Australians also use the terms' auntie' and 'aunty' to refer to an indigenous( native) Australian woman who has earned their respect. This is highly applicable in spoken English, but when it comes to written English, it's always safer to ask her how she would like to be addressed.
Based on my research, I get the gist that whether you use aunty or auntie depends on where you are geographically and culturally. Aussies tend to use 'aunty' more, whilst the Brits use 'auntie'.
An “auntie” in popular parlance is defined by being independent, attractive, and powerful.
In many Indigenous cultures, that beloved, trusted adult is often an auntie: a woman, somewhat older than you, who could be officially related or not.

Luebbert uses they/them pronouns and has their students address them with honorific Mx. — a gender-neutral alternative to the gendered Mr., Ms., Miss and Mrs. that most of us grew up using for our teachers.

“If your child has come out to you as non-binary, one of the best things you can do is educate yourself,” says Geisinger pediatrician Dr. Megan Moran-Sands. “Consider joining an LGBTQ support group on social media, listening to podcasts or reading books on the topic.”
Theyby (plural theybies) and non-binary baby are neologisms for a baby or child raised in a way that is gender-neutral, allowing children to choose their own gender, and also referring to the accompanying parenting style.
“The daughter of one's niece or nephew is traditionally referred to as either a grand niece or great niece. Both are widely considered correct, as the child is one additional step removed from the individual in question.
Your children and your cousin's children are second cousins. When your first cousin has a grandchild, that grandchild is your first cousin twice removed, because they are two generations from you.
A nephew is the son of your sibling. This makes you the aunt or uncle of that nephew.
