First of all SunXia, the terms do exist. In greek by the way. And...a lazy way to say cousin once removed? Thanks for the insult of my language. Now back to our actuall topic: Isshin used to be a member of the Shiba family? Used to? According to this wiki he is an active member of the family. Thus his children should also be considered members of it.

Also, Wri-El, what I wanted to say is that while what you said is true, there is no need for Ichigo to gain some power in order to be recognized as a Shiba clan member. He has their blood after all. So even though becoming, ie the soul king would of course reinforce his ties to the Shiba clan, there is no need for that to happen since he should already be a full fledged member.
