Best Answer

No. Your closest relations are your parents and your children - you are separated by 1 degree of separation. To get to your sister, that's 2 degrees (up to mom, down to sis). When determining degrees of separation, you always have to work back to the common ancestor and then down to the person, and each step is a degree.

What do you call your godmother's mother?

Your half-sister's mother may be your mother, if you have different fathers. If you have different mothers and your father is married to your half-sister's mother, then you probably should call her "mother." If your half-sister's mother is not connected to your father (i.e. her father married your mother) then there is no relationship name for you to call her mother, other than "my half-sister's mother."
