For your loved ones, generally speaking, you should use the established title to address them, but sometimes in order to show goodwill, there is no need to stick to the standard of title. For example, father-in-law, mother-in-law, father-in-law and mother-in-law can all be called "father" and "mother". In-laws can also call each other by their elders' names to show intimacy and absence. However, when addressing your relatives to outsiders, you should be modest. When addressing elders and relatives older than yourself, you can add the word "home", such as "my father", "my mother" and "my brother". Relatives who are lower in seniority or younger than themselves can add the word "shed", such as "brother", "sister" and "nephew". As for calling children, you can call them "children" and "little girls".
