lobe
The outer or projecting extremity, particularly of the ear (i.e., earlobe), but in some contexts the tip or edge of another body part. Most commonly denotes the fleshy lobe at the lower extremity of the ear; by extension can mean tip or uttermost edge more generally, but rarely attested as such outside the anatomical sense.
