Fronds in English is a leaf or leaflike part of a palm tree or fern or similar plant.

The fingers on leaves are called pinnules.
A compound leaf is a leaf where the leaf blade is divided into multiple leaflets instead of being a single and undivided blade.
And each individual leaflet in a compound leaf is called a pinnule and when leaflets radiate out from a central point like fingers from a hand then the leaf is called a palmate.
Some examples of plants with palmate leaves include Aesculus buckeyes and hemp or Cannabis.
