Hmm. According to Collins you're right. That makes me a lot less sure about the definitions I had in my head:

Tantchen, either a) your favorite aunt or a b) random short and/or middle-aged woman that you're being condescending towards.
auntie, a woman that you may or may not be related to but who you look up to for advice etc. and who may fill the role of a parent at times.

Maybe someone wants to comment on the veracity of these. :)
