An aunt is a person who is the sister, half-sister, or sister-in-law of a parent, or the wife of one's uncle or aunt, but can also be an affectionate title for an older nurturing woman. Aunts are second-degree relatives and share 25% genetic overlap when they are the full sister of one of the biological parents. Known alternate terms include Auntie or Aunty. A half-aunt is a half-sister of one's parent and is a third-degree relative with 12.5% genetic overlap. If the aunt is a sister-in-law, direct genetic overlap will typically be 0%, as this person entered the family through marriage and typically is not a blood relative. A grandaunt (sometimes written as great-aunt, great aunt or grand aunt) is the sister, half-sister, or sister-in-law of a grandparent, or the wife of one's granduncle or grandaunt. The male equivalent of an aunt is an uncle, and the reciprocal relationship is that of a nephew or niece. A female cousin of one's parent is often, although technically incorrect, addressed as "aunt" instead of "cousin" due to the age difference. Aunts in popular culturePeopleDue to the positive image of an old but wise and friendly aunt in many cultures, the word has been used often as an affectionate nickname. Children's TV hosts using "aunt" as their nickname include Hannie Lips ("Tante Hannie"), Lily Petersen ("Tante Lily") and Terry Van Ginderen ("Tante Terry"). New Zealand radio presenter Aunt Daisy is another example. Writers using it include Laura Valentine ("Aunt Louisa"), Harriette Newell Woods Baker ("Aunt Hattie"), Elma Dalhuijsen-Nuis ("Tante Kaat") and Henriette Roland Holst ("Tante Jet"). Musicians using it include Dutch singer Helena Polder (Tante Leen), American folk singer Aunt Molly Jackson, country singer Aunt Sap, Hawaiian musician Aunty Genoa Keawe, Auntie Alice Namakelua and Auntie Nona, the rock bands Auntie Christ and Aunt Mary, the disco band Aunty Disco Project and the jazz band Aunt Ruby's Sweet Jazz Babies. Pornographic actress Juliet Anderson named herself Aunt Peg, while YouTube personality Felicia A. O'Dell named herself Auntie Fee. Due to its inviting image several buildings have also used the word "aunt" in their name, such as the Italian safe house Aunt Anna's and the Dutch restaurant Tante Koosje. Companies like the BBC (Auntie Beeb), Auntie Anne's, Aunt Bessie's, Aunt Carrie's, Aunty Green Hotel, Aunt Jemima, Aunt Judy's Magazine, Aunt Nellie's Red Cabbage, Spry Vegetable Shortening (Aunt Jenny), Aunt Lute Books and Club Penguin (Aunt Arctic) use it for the same reasons. An Aunt Sally is a dummy of an old woman's head, which players throw sticks or battens to. Wise or otherwise eccentric aunts are common in works of fiction.
