Terminology I use when teaching, and I do this without claiming that it is correct or anything like that, purpose being just to be able identify and talk about things we do, is "molinete" for the case when the axis of rotation is in one partner's leg/side-of-the-body and "giro" when the axis of rotation is between the partners. Since we need terms to address things we discuss/teach, this terminology has served me well, right or wrong.

For me a molinette is what the woman/follower dance when the couple is doing a Giro. That means molinette is short for back-side-front.
