great-great-grandchild

Great-grandparent's great-grandchild

A great-great-grandchild is the child of your great-grandchild—four generations removed from you.

The term extends the kinship chain: grandchild, great-grandchild, great-great-grandchild, with additional "greats" added for each further generation.

Living to see one's great-great-grandchildren is uncommon but not rare.
