   • Thumb. Different from the other four digits in that it’s shorter and wider and only has two phalanges instead of three, the thumb earned its name from a description of its physical characteristics in relation to its neighbors.
   • Index/Pointer Finger. Next in line after the pollex is the digitus secundus manus. Index comes from the Latin indicō, which means “to point out”; that’s also where the term pointer comes into play.
   • Middle Finger. The second finger (third digit) has the most literal meaning of all. Less commonly referred to as the long or tall finger, the digitus medius manus sits in the center of the hand, right between the digitus secondus manus and the ring finger.
   • Ring Finger. Known medically as the digitus medicinalis, digitus quartus manus, or digitus annularis manus, the origin of the term ring finger dates back to 2nd century Egypt and has to do with the heart.
