great-great-granddaughters

Grandchildren's grandchildren's daughters

Great-great-granddaughters are female descendants four generations removed from an ancestor—the daughters of one's great-grandchildren, or equivalently, the granddaughters of one's grandchildren.

The term follows English's additive system for marking generational distance, where each "great" adds one generation beyond grandchild.

Queen Victoria's great-great-granddaughters include Queen Elizabeth II.

Such terms appear most often in genealogical contexts or when tracing family lineages across centuries.
