Finn

Person from Helsinki

A Finn is a person from Finland or of Finnish descent.

The word also serves as a masculine given name, popularized by characters like Huckleberry Finn and more recently by figures in popular culture: Finn was the breakout character in the new Star Wars trilogy.

As a name, it can derive from Irish Fionn, meaning fair or white. (Lowercase finn is dated slang for a five-dollar bill.)
