I know the names of fingers.
thumb
index finger
middle finger
ring finger
little finger
What are the names for the toes?
Thank you
In BrE, we speak of the 'big toe' and the 'little toe'. There are no names for the three in between.
Context is always important; labelling is rarely important.
[not a teacher]
The little finger is also called "the pinky*" and therefore, the little toe can be referred to as "the pinky toe" (or even just "the pinky" if the context of "toe/foot" has been established). I think I've also heard "the wee little toe", which may be a reference to This Little Piggy.
*and often not "the pinky finger", unless it is to distinguish it from "the pinky toe", or to establish "finger" context.
example:
1: Ow! I dropped a can on my foot!
2: Are you ok?
1: I think my pinky is broken. (Here pinky means the little toe.)
