Pibling is equivalent to "sibling" and is similar to how "nibling" is used for nieces and nephews.

The word "pibling" is a combination of "sibling" and "parent".

Yes - there is a proposed collective term for aunts and uncles: piblings.
It's a modern, linguistically tidy coinage formed from parent + sibling.
