Say if by gripping a pen, the thumb is placed on top of other fingers (the index finger in the example below), instead of touching the pen itself, how would you name that position? A short expression with as few words as possible is appreciated.

This is called a thumb wrap according to these experts.

I changed it. Just for my own info, did you downvote me for that?? :)– LambieCommented Jan 17, 2018 at 17:18

@PeterKämpf Bear in mind, there is nothing "official" about it. Seems to be the same picture as the one you posted. Somebody is ripping off pictures, wouldn't you say? :)– LambieCommented Jan 17, 2018 at 18:01

@Lambie: No, I made the picture myself; both are similar but use a different pen and a different hand ;-) Commented Jan 17, 2018 at 21:10
It looks like:
someone holding a pen in his fist.
It's not entirely accurate, and also implies a tight grip, but does convey that it looks awkward.
