I've never heard either term used to describe germans, most typically they seem to be called Prussians. Though, I may be wrong or out of date.

Neither, Germans belong to the germanic group together with scandinavians, while the baltic peoples make up the larger balto-slavic family qwith the differetn slavic peoples.

However the germanic group are divided into West germanic (germans, dutch and english) east germanic (dead, most famous were goths, vandals, burgundians etc.) and North germanic also referred to as scandinavian or nordic peoples.

So germans are germanic but int the west germanic group not the north germanic one.

Iceland was ruled by Scandinavian countries for centuries.

So in a way, Iceland could be considered a child of Scandinavia, as Scandinavia helped produce Iceland.
