Welcome to the Downs, Tar-Alcarin. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

That is an interesting theory, although I don't know if you could make any case for a "spiritual connection" between a hobbit of the Shire and the Dark Lord Sauron. It seems to me to that there is a good chance that it is a coincidence, since Frodo and Sauron's connections to the Ring are obviously very different and the cirumstances in which each lost the Ring (and subsequently their fingers) were not similar.
