Soviet names

I know some one on here will have the answer!

1WO (wife) bought me Red Star Under the Baltic for christmas. The book is written by Viktor Korzh, and he is referred to in the book by not just that name but also by Viktor Yemelianovich. What is going on here? The captain on Korzh's (Yemelianovichs??) first patrol also seemed to have two names. (i'm too lazy to flick back the pages to find them!).

Aside from my confusion over Ruskie names, its been a good read so far! Just the thing to while away long hours cruising the Atlantic.
