more honorfic thangs!

[Hatori]

well, if you know, i have made a "family honorfics" forum, but this is a new type of honorfic forum place!!! HAHA!

i was wondering, what type of different honorfic-type of names there are!
i've been continuing reading the Fruits Basket series and i know that-

Onee-san (-chan): sister or aunt-like figure (or a female you look up to or w/e)
Shishou- name for a martial arts teacher

and i know some other ones that means stupid kid or stupid adult for talking about their parent(s) or child so highly all of the time.

i'm kinda vague, but speak freely!!! i can't think of any specific type of meaning i'd be wanting to look for to call people by...

Aniue is quite formal. Most people would use oniisan.

Again, most would use musukosan for son.

Where'd you dig up hakubo and hakufu? I've never heard these used, nor have I ever seen them written. Everyone I've every spoken with tends to use obasan and ojisan to refer to aunts and uncles in general, regardless of relative age.

Although some of these will get used from time to time, people often just say 'my daughter's husband' or 'my wife's father,' etc.

because, Mukade, the person who made this thread asked for honorific.

ぎり is also very common for in-laws.
