There's sometimes a difference between a people's ethnicity and its language family. While the Finns speak a language related to Lappish and Hungarian, they are ethnically Scandinavian, no different than the Danes, Swedes, and Norwegians.

The Hungarians are certainly of Asiatic origin. Their language is definitely Asiatic (thus they are not "Aryans"). In fact, in Hungary the surname precedes the given name, just like in Asia.

The family name does precede the given name in Hungary. The language is not Indo-European in origin which makes it (and Finnish which is also Finno-Ugraic) a rarity in Europe. The only other language spoken in Europe that is not Indo-European is Basque which is a Neolithic language that somehow survived.

The genetic tests of the people however showed that Hungarians today are almost identical to neighboring people in Central Europe. Only the Hungarians in Transylvania who were a bit more geographically isolatedshowed any genetic inheritance from Central Asia and even among them it amounted to only 1%. Hell, the average European is 2.7% Neanderthal.
