Official national forms vary from country to country:

American: forearm at 45° angle to the forehead, blade hand with palm towards face.
British: similar to American, but with palm facing outward.
Nazi Germany: straight arm extended forward and upwards.

Stylized forms appear in many magical_girl titles:

Sailor_Moon in particular popularized the "V" hand held sideways, partially framing the eye. This was later inherited by Asamiya_Athena from King_of_Fighters_96 onwards.
In Final_Fantasy_VIII, Rinoa_Heartilly gestures with an upward pointing index finger.

Other well-known forms:

Kung_fu: a closed fist wrapped in an open palm, often with a slight bow
Peace/Victory: outward palm with index and middle finger extended, arm extended forward
Love: opposing thumbs and index fingers join at the fingertips in the shape of a heart; other fingers may suggest wings
