If you'd bothered to read the very first sentence of that Wiki page, you'd know you'd be wrong:
The Normans (Norman: Normaunds; French: Normands; Latin: Nortmanni/Normanni; Old Norse: Norðmaðr) are an ethnic group that arose from contact between Norse Viking settlers of a region in France, named Normandy after them, and indigenous Franks and Gallo-Romans
No mention of Danes, Icelanders or Swedes.
