The largest finger on your hand is called thumb.

It's super important for gripping and holding things.
The thumb is opposable, which means it can touch and move across other fingers.

The index finger, or forefinger, is generally considered to be the largest finger on the hand. The index finger is the second digit on the hand, and it is typically longer and thicker than the other fingers. In fact, the index finger is often considered to be about 1/3 larger than the middle, ring, and pinky fingers. While there is some variation from person to person, most people's index fingers are the largest on their hands. Interestingly, the index finger is also often considered to be the most dominant finger, and it is the first to develop fine motor skills.

The thumb is larger and more powerful than the other fingers because it is used for grasping and manipulating objects.


Thumb is thicker than all the other fingers on your hand because it has to oppose all 4 of the other fingers - meaning that if you hold an object, you have 4 fingers on one side of it to maintain the grip while the other side there is only the thumb to provide an equal amount of force.

The middle finger holds the title of the longest finger on the hand. Positioned between the index and ring fingers, it usually stands out due to its length and central location in the hand's arrangement.
