Rihanna has the words 'love' on her middle finger and 'shhh...' on her index finger. It's a pretty cool idea 'coz every time you need someone to shut up, all you have to do is show them the finger! You can also ink your favorite quote or something that reminds you always want to be reminded of.

An example for the same would be, 'You're not alone', 'Love Never Fails', 'God is with you', and so on. Another interesting idea would be to ink the words 'Read Between the Lines' in your middle finger. Now this can be a rather bold tattoo... if you know what it means!!

Another popular trend among the word tattoos is to ink the initials of someone really close to you, say your best friend, partner, or your relatives. Speaking of finger tattoos for your partner, most people tend to ink their ring finger with the initial and date when they started dating or when they got married.

Love is the most important thing in the world. We all need love, we all give love, each and every relationship is based on love, so why not symbolize it on yourself to remind its importance, when the world today is questioning its existence.

Inking symbols has been a practice since the ancient times, even before the 'civilized' section of the society became enthusiastic about getting themselves inked.

These symbols were inked because they were believed to be a symbolic representation of elements that brought luck or power to protect oneself from the threatening forces around. Does this remind you of a symbol that is significant to you in your life, in terms of luck, power, or belief.

Some other designs are - the star which symbolizes perfection, good fortune, the 3 keys (representing wealth, health, love), a shamrock clover with 4 leaves (representing love, health, wealth, fame), or a religious symbol like the cross or the 'aum'.

For getting a finger tattoo, you needn't follow the crowd. It feels so uncomfortable when we see someone else wearing the same tattoo. Choose a design which personally connects with you from deep within. This will give it a sense of uniqueness and will make you standout from the crowd. People will admire your tattoo, and the creative and innovative you.
