I just call A wide grip chins and B close grip chins.
A will target you lats more than B, B will target your biceps more than A. So when training back do A.

Personally I think this testicle tenderness is due to my recent return to AM cardio. I do it naked on a recumbent bike and my gonads tend to flop about.

A is a chin-up, B is a pull-up in my vocab.
I'm not convinced there is a 'correct' answer to this. To avoid confusion I just call them 'overhand' or 'underhand' chins, very different exercises though.

I refer to A as Pull-Ups and B as Chin-Ups.
Where do you stand on a semi-supinated grip then (hands facing each other)?
That is a Chull-up.
