Not particularly, but the wife does, except I call them “Freddie Fingers”, in homage to Mr.Krueger, although to be fair, she’s much nicer.
No you don’t. So what? If you want to play, then play. Exercise will change your fingers’ morphology and lessons and practice will make it possible for you to overcome any physical disadvantages. You should see what my son can do, and he’s only 13. He got my fingers, too, not my wife’s long, flexible fingers. Mine don’t look that different from yours, except they look male.
Rachmaninoff had a span several notes longer than an octave, FWIW.
Pianists’ hands come in all sizes and shapes.

I was sure it said “you” in the question…ah well.
Gailcalled – if you don’t like the question then don’t answer it.
Check on a keyboard. Can your hand span reach an octave? Are your fingers very nimble? Do you read music? If you’re just interested in how they ‘look’, it really doesn’t matter. Just keep them neat and well groomed.
