There is no commonly used term for this part of the fingernail. You can say "I am cutting my nails" without specifying which part of the nail is being cut, everyone will understand what you mean. There are specific technical terms for the various parts of the nail, but the only colloquial term you are likely to hear in reference to nail anatomy is "quick", which is where the nail joins onto the finger: "She chewed her nails to the quick".
