Anatomically speaking, the part between the knee cap and foot is simply called the leg. It is to be distinguished from the upper lower limb above the knee, which is called the thigh, which you already know.
The circle bones on the sides of the ankle are prominences of the two lower leg bones. On the inner or medial side is the medial malleolus of the tibia. On the outer or lateral side is the lateral malleolus of the fibula. See the image in the link below.
