I guess it means the same as coochie. Does that explain it?

bet there's not too many ladies named Fanny across the pond

Not these days, no. Before it got its current meaning there were a few in the victorian era. Quite a common name back them. It did continue for a while after as well. Think Fanny Craddock- she was britains first TV chef- taught you how to cook with rations during the war.

Nowadays nobody is called Fanny. Funny that.
