An uncle on your mother's side would be a maternal uncle, where an uncle on your father's side would be a paternal uncle. However, in most cases, English speakers do not make a distinction, calling the brother of either parent simply an uncle.

Since your uncle is the brother of your mother or father, his mother is your grandmother. If he has a stepmother, she is not related to you unless she is the mother of your parent and your uncle is the half-brother of your parent.

If your uncle is married to the brother or sister of one of your parents, his mother is not related to you. The English language has no term for a relationship between you.

Typically by name, though it isn't uncommon to refer to them the same way your cousins do, Grandma Nash, or Grammy Stuart. They are not technically related to you as there is no common ancestor between you.

If your uncle is the sibling of one of your parents, his mother is your grandmother.

If he is the spouse of the sibling of one of your parents, there is no relationship as you do not share a common ancestor.
