I hope this was a joke.  How about 'Busigin'? ;-)

Another thing we could do to be original is have non-descript names for each
race.  ie.

Russian:
        male:   illya, ivan, tikhon, matvey, etc
        female: galina, katrina, etc

English:
        male:   john, mike, trent
        female: jane, michelle

et cetra.  This way, we won't offend any Russians, or Americans if they
happen to dislike Kennedy, or Stalin.

Small annoying things.  Never mind.  I should get back to work, and stop
these patronizing replies.
