Line 78:
* "Yevgeny" is not an usual transliteration of this name, and maybe isn't proper, but when the writer who translated [[Barbara Hambly (Creator)|Barbara Hambly]] so well uses it for himself (e.g. [http://www.rusf.ru/english/lukin/biblgr.htm on his own site]), [[Artistic License]] automatically wins.
** It's may be unusual, but it's ''official''. Welcome to the world of [[Obstructive Bureaucrat|bureaucracy]], my friend.
** It is official, because that is how the name is actually pronounced. The reason why it seems counterintuitive to most Russian-speakers is, as explained on the "Russian language" [[Useful Notes]] page, that the "ye" syllable is a single letter in Russian, and that letter is identical in appearance to the Latin "E". That is why [[Spell My Name With an "S"|some prefer to spell it]] as "Evgeny".
