Fin (troll)
Fin is a troll in a legend from Kalundborg, Zealand, Denmark. The legend also exists in Sweden, but it instead has a giant from Lund (before 1658 in Denmark), with the name Jätten Finn ("Finn the Giant"). The legend about Fin also exists in the genuine Sweden (that wasn't Denmark). There are suggestions on a connection to the Celtic myth of Fionn mac Cumhaill.
