MAKOVSKY - is my family =))))
In Russia, it is no matter what to place first - a name or surname,
so that's why I spell my name differently from time to time.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor (about people with the same name in
Wiki).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=Makovsky (about
people with the same family)
PLUS!!
In Russia, we also have a father's name in our full names =)) We
usually use it in official language, though we sometimes use it in
our daily speech too: "Makovsky Igor Andreevich" - is my full name.
Because my father's name is Andrew. Sometimes we even call each other
like this, for example "Igor Andreevich", or simply "Andreevich", but
never "Makovsky Andreevich".
