Answer 2

primo, tio, cunado, etc.

We use all of those to call people even if they aren't related to us.

Tio for older people, primo for people of our age, an cunado is for people of our age

Answer 3

He was just saying "primo" but in a bit cute way, I live in Colombia and there are some friends who say in this way too, so I'm pretty sure about it =D
