'The hip socket is a ball-and-socket joint medically known as the acetabulofemoral joint. The hip socket supports the weight of the human body in both static and dynamic motions. It is one of the strongest - if not the strongest - joint in the human body.
The hip socket is called the acetabulum; the hip bone is called the pelvis or pelvic girdle. The joint is the femoro-acetabular or femoro-pelvic joint.
The acetabulum is a concave surface of the pelvis. The head of the femur meets with the pelvis at the acetabulum, forming the hip joint
Another name for the hip socket is acetabulum.

The hip joint is a ball and socket joint just like you shoulder!
The part of the hip where the femur articulates is called the acetabulum.
The shoulder socket is deeper than the hip socket because the shoulder joint sacrifices stability for mobility. This design allows for a greater range of motion at the expense of stability. In contrast, the hip joint is designed for weight-bearing and stability, so it has a shallower socket to provide better support for the body.
