If two people are each 20 generations from their common ancestor, they are 18th cousins. If they are not both 20 generations from the common ancestor, then they may be 17th cousins once removed or 16th cousins twice removed, etc., up to 1st cousins 17 times removed - depending on where each is in the descendency tree in relation to the common ancestor
