Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Parsing this out, if your mother is your sister (assuming not in a step-sister sense), then you and she share a common parent, and has medical science tends to dispel the idea of one giving birth to themselves, it would have to be your father. Based on this, your father is also your maternal grandfather. Furthermore, you are your own uncle as well.

If your father is your uncle, then he would have to be either the brother or brother-in-law of your mother. Regardless, this would make your mother your aunt as well. As the sister or sister-in-law of your maternal grandfather, she is also a great aunt, making your father your great uncle as well.

One thing is that your father would not be your brother as you and he would not share any common parents, but he could be your brother-in-law if another sibling is involved or your are in a jurisdiction where fraternal marriage (between brother and sister) is allowed.
