Names of fingers in Indian palmistry

1D (thumb)
2D (forefinger or index finger) = Jupiter finger
3D (middle finger) = Saturn finger
4D (ring finger) = Sun finger, aka Apollo finger
5D (little finger) = Mercury finger

Some interesting quotes from Indian palmistry concerning the 2D:4D digit ratio

"Length of Apollo (ring finger) and Jupiter fingers are the same [4D=2D]
For people with Apollo finger equal to index finger, they will get famous all over the globe. Examples of individuals with equal fingers are French leader Napoleon Bonaparte and former American president, Abraham Lincoln. 
Forefinger much shorter than the middle finger [2D<3D]
This person will be having a high level of timidity. They will be unsure of all things that they will be doing; this is the case especially when the index finger does not reach the nail of the middle finger. 
If the finger of Apollo is larger than the forefinger [low 2D:4D], then the subject will be egocentric and proud of themselves. These individuals struggle and ensure they get the best jobs. They will be found to be in charge of many people, having a range of responsibilities. Due to their desire to take up progression in their careers they tend to flatter the senior managers, in order to gain any promotions that arise in the workplace.
The extreme ego is so strong that they cannot imagine working under other people; if this is the case they work extra hard to get promotion and get a chance to rule others. Despite the low opinions society holds of them and the frequent insults, they opt to carry on and ignore their enemies’ effort to bring them down. Having an forefinger that is much smaller than the Apollo finger, means this person is rather clever and has the ambition to excel in life."
