Talk:stepbrother

Question
If I had a half brother born out of wedlock, and that brother had a half brother which was not my half brother. Would that person be referred to as a step-brother, a quarter brother, or just my half brother's half brother?


 * Unless your common parent married that boy’s parent, then you would not be related at all. He would just be your half brother’s half brother. —Stephen 17:30, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Alternate definitions
If my wife's first husband had a son named Junior from a previous marriage, that son would be her stepson. After he died, we married and had a daughter named Bridget. My wife is Junior's stepmother and Bridget's mother, so that means Bridget is Junior's stepsister. That means in turn Juniour should be the stepbrother of Bridget. I added a second definition that corresponds to this usage of the word stepbrother.
