Is your cousin's nephew your cousin or nephew or neither?
Your first cousin's sibling (parent of the nephew) is also your first cousin, so in that case the nephew is your first cousin, once removed.However, it's possible that the nephew is the son of one of your cousin's spouse's siblings, which makes him best described as "no relation."Then there's half-siblings, and step-siblings.... the bottom line is you're probably best off leaving it as "my cousin's nephew" except in the specific "cousin once removed" case already mentioned.
