Nibbler?
Fair enough, learn a new thing each day haha
Altho I think it still says something about how we use English that I don't think I've ever heard that used

Pibling (parent-sibling). Spanish speakers also have Titi (combining tio and Tia) and Italians (but NOT French) can use Zizi.
There’s also Unty and Auncle. I like Piblings though.
What happens if they try? Do they go to jail or is it just a fine?
Zizi is French slang for “penis”

Nibling is a great word. But we need a neutral version of aunt or uncle.
nunt?
What did you call me?
