grandniece
Nephew's daughter, perhaps
A grandniece is the daughter of one's niece or nephew—the granddaughter of one's sibling.
The term places someone two generations below you in a family line that runs through your sibling rather than through you directly: My grandniece just started kindergarten.
Also called great-niece.
