The medical term for the toes are phalanges.

not to over step you but if you want the anatomical name they are digets (except the big toe which is the Hallucis) if you mean the bones they are indeed phalanges. again sorry to overstep but the question said scientific name not bone.

There are many as it depends on where at in the foot anatomy you're speaking of really. The simplest answer is that the end bones of both feet and hands are phalanges. In order to differentiate we would say metatarsal for toe and metacarpal for finger since tarsal and carpal are the only defining difference when specifying the anatomical position being toes or fingers.
