Summary: Among the curiosities of the Soviet period are the new "revolutionary" first names that were inspired by the communist ideology. Until today these creations are to be found as first names and patronymics. This volume throws light upon a so far unexplored chapter of modern Russian history and for the first time makes possible the deciphering of the artificially constructed first names that were created wholesale after 1917, such as "Lenmar" (Lenin, Marx) or "Ninel" (Lenin spelled backwards).
