Names for girl parts.....

Sorry I know the names for girl parts thread has been done loads but I just don't know what to do.

DD1 started PT today and currently just calls everything there a "bum". Thing is, there isn't a single other name that I feel comfortable using with her, for her girl parts. But I know this is the time that I can use to teach her this as she has been looking there and asking questions. But if I do, she is likely to pick up on the fact I am uncomfortable with it.

She knows boys have willys and thats fine, I feel happy with that. But its the girl bits I have issues with and really don't want to let her see this.

Anybody else feel like this or have any advice?

Why is it always the girl bits that are so hard to name? I don't mind teaching my daughter the correct word, although I use vagina, but I don't want her using it all of the time. I've tried calling it front bum and her privates, but neither is sticking and I'm not totally comfortable with either. I can't remember what I called it and neither can my sister.....

we call it a nuffy in our house (not pronounced nuf, but more nouf) God knows why!!!?? My husband came out with it one day and its stuck ever since. My eldest girl just says that we all have nuffys but daddy has a long one
