Picking a gift for 3rd cousin
Third cousins are the relatives you find out about at a reunion, over a genealogy chart, or when a DNA test turns up a name you've never heard. That's what makes a gift for one fun: the connection is real but loose, and nobody's sure how to explain it. A shirt that just says 3rd cousin does the explaining for them, usually with a laugh. It works for the reunion where two branches of the family finally meet, for the cousin you only see at weddings, or for the one you tracked down through a family tree and are meeting in person for the first time. You can type 3rd cousin as is, or add a name, the reunion year or the town your shared great-great-grandparents came from on the second line. A mug makes a low-pressure gift for a cousin you're just getting to know, and a kids tee or onesie gets the youngest branch of the family in on the joke.
3rd Cousin gift questions
What exactly is a 3rd cousin?
Third cousins share great-great-grandparents. They're usually related through a common ancestor four generations back, which is why many families only discover them through reunions or genealogy research.
Can I put a name or a date on a 3rd cousin shirt?
Yes. Many designs have a second line where you can type a name, a reunion year or a hometown. The preview updates as you type, so you can check it before ordering.
Can I use the same design for 2nd cousin or 4th cousin?
Yes. Type whichever relationship fits into the text box and the design updates. Each cousin level also has its own page if you'd like to browse them.
Can I order matching shirts for a whole reunion?
Yes. In the Team Shop, choose one design, paste everyone's names and pick a size for each person. Each shirt prints with its own name.
What sizes do the 3rd cousin shirts come in?
Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
How long does a 3rd cousin gift take to arrive?
Each order is printed after you place it, in 2 to 4 business days, then ships by ground in 3 to 5 business days. The product page shows the delivery window for today's orders.
What if the print has a mistake?
If we print something different from the preview you approved, or it arrives damaged, we reprint it free.
