No the pinky ring is an Italian thing my father,uncles all wore them all the time and they were legit guys.
Out of curiosity, did they wear their wedding rings as well?
I always remember my uncles, cousins, etc... wearing a wedding ring & gold watch on their left hand and a pinky ring & gold bracelet on the right hand. Of course they had the horn & malocchio thing and crucifix gold necklace as well.
