Finger Tattoo

1. Words Finger Tattoo

The most common Finger Tattoo you’re probably going to find is letters written across each Finger to form 2 short words both with four letters each, eg. Self Made, Good Life, Live Free, or as this design says, God’s Skin and Eyes Burn.

Finger Tattoos with words usually have some deep personal meaning to the wearer who wants to express something about their life in a bold and boisterous way. 

2. Fish Finger Tattoo

Fish Tattoos can have a variety of different meanings depending on which Fish you decide to get inked in, Koi Fish Tattoos and Dragon Fish Tattoos both carry the symbolism of perseverance and tenacity, other fish such as Clownfish Tattoos can symbolize adaptability and resilience, while Angelfish Tattoos are often associated with grace, elegance, and beauty. 

3. Lion Finger Tattoo

Often incorrectly named ‘The King of the Jungle’ (Lions don’t live in Jungles), the Lion is the King of the Savanna.

The meaning of your Lion Tattoo can depend based on whether it is a Lioness or a Lion Tattoo.

Lioness’ have strong family values and is the predominant Hunters in Lion society so a Lioness Tattoo can symbolize these qualities, while the Lion can symbolize royalty and protection as he is both King and protector of his harem. 

4. Snake Finger Tattoo

Despite their often negative reputation, Snakes can carry with them positive symbolic meaning.

While Snakes have a bad wrap because the Garden of Eden story often links them to betrayal and deceit, Snakes can also symbolize fertility and rebirth through shedding their skin and their association with the Ouroboros symbol, as well as health and medicine, as in Greek mythology, snakes were linked to the god of healing, Asclepius.

5. Dragon Finger Tattoo

If you like Mythological Tattoos then you should get the King of the Mythological beings in the form of a Dragon Tattoo.

Dragon Tattoos have a variety of different meanings depending on the origin of your chosen Dragon as well as the color.

Dragon Tattoo symbolism can vary from wisdom, strength, seasons, weather, or even challenges to be faced. 

6. Yokai Finger Tattoo

Yokai Tattoos are depictions of supernatural beings and mysterious phenomena in Japanese folklore, including ghosts, demons, monsters, shapeshifters, and tricksters.

This Japanese Mask Tattoo has some different types of Yokai including the Kappa and Oni, but also has different Japanese Mask Designs too such as the Noh Mask and the Saru Mask. 

7. Butterfly Finger Tattoo

Butterfly Tattoos come with symbolism such as freedom, femininity, and grace, but are also a symbol of life cycles and how that change is a natural part of life or how that change and transformation is possible. 

8. Spider Finger Tattoo

A Spider Tattoo is another cool idea for your Finger Tattoo due to a Spider’s naturally small size.

Despite their fearsome reputation Spider Tattoos have a lot of positive symbolism, for example, in Indian culture The Spider is seen as a creature that weaves reality.

A quote from The Upanishads (the Indian book of wisdom) reads as follows. “We are like the spider.

We weave our life and then move along in it. We are like the dreamer who dreams and then lives in the dream.”

9. Tribal Finger Tattoo

Tribal Tattoos are characterized by their bold black lines and geometric patterns, and they connect the wearer with their heritage and foster a sense of pride and unity.

This great Tribal Finger Tattoo is done in the style of traditional Polynesian Tribal Tattoo art. 

10. Rose Finger Tattoo

Rose Tattoos are another nice idea for your Finger Tattoo.

A Rose Tattoo is arguably the most recognized symbol of love, romance, and passion and is the perfect way to show your love for someone.

A Black Rose Tattoo can symbolize death, farewell, and the end of something, but I don’t think that it was the intention of this design.  

11. Paw Print Finger Tattoo

Paw Print Tattoos are a great way of honouring your furry-friend, or just to show off your love for animals in general.

Due to their minimalistic style, a Paw Print Tattoo will sit lovely on one of your fingers and might be a better option for people who want to memorialize their pet without having to go for a Portrait Tattoo.

This Lucky Clover Tattoo, however, is the even more rare five-leaved clover which is less commonly found naturally than four-leaf clovers.
