Whether Danmark or even Finland is included is matter of definition, but the Baltics are usually not included.

By definition, if Finland is included, we're talking about Fennoscandia and, if you add in Iceland, it's the Nordic countries.

Denmark is usually included in Scandinavia, but technically it isn't part of the Scandinavian peninsula.

However, I know that outside Europe the distinctions aren't all that important.

AfaIk, Fennoscandia would include the whole peninsula including the currently russian parts.
