Password: either Falathrim or its form in Sindarin dialect, Falathrin?

From the Tolkien Gateway:

"The Falathrim were the shoreland Elves of the Falas who took Círdan as their lord from the beginning. Their last home on Middle-earth before finally leaving for the Undying Lands was the Grey Havens, but before that they dwelt mainly in the ancient havens of Eglarest and Brithombar."

1. I'll guess Fingon ... but is Finland part of Scandinavia?

From Wikipedia:

"The terms Scandinavia and Scandinavian entered usage in the 18th century as terms for the three Scandinavian countries [Sweden, Norway and Denmark], their peoples and associated language and culture, being introduced by the early linguistic and cultural Scandinavist movement. Sometimes the term Scandinavia is also taken to include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical association with the Scandinavian countries."
