According to the :
" The top spins on the point or tip. This is the smallest part of the spinning top. The other end of the spinning top is the crown. Its the starting place where we wind the spinning top. Right below the crown is the shoulder. The body of the spinning top is the part between the shoulder and the tip. "
I dont know if these are the official terms or just the ones that this group likes to use, but Im guessing theyre fairly standard.
