The little one is called the "pinky" or "little toe". I don't think we have names for the other 3. @Kate Lo: The big one is called the “big toe”. The little one is called the “pinky” or “little toe”.

Vauv.. In Turkish language (Türkçe'de): 1. Başparmak - main/head finger 2. İşaret parmağı - pointing finger 3. Orta parmak - middle finger 4. Yüzük parmağı - finger for ring 5. Serçe parmak - sparrow finger (I think there is a relation of "being little", as the sparrow is relatively a little bird) Nice to participate to this blog...
