One of the MySQL founders is Finnish, but it was in Sweden. (InnoDB was Finnish, iirc.)

Many people consider the Finnish founder, Michael Widenius, to be the main author of MySQL and it was named after his daughter My. I would definitely consider it to be Finnish software at the very least equal to, if not more than, Swedish.
