In the currently known Russian localizations<!--as assumed from online sources, this page being the first of them-->, Drakon and [[Dracon]] have the same name spelling (Дракон, ''Drakon'', which also exactly matches the capitalized spelling of the Rissian word for a [[dragon]]), since letters C and K are transliterated in the same way, namely as К (e.g. [[Korbac]] is "Корбак", ''Korbak'', in Russian), and because the translators didn't bother to prevent the multi-level confusion (e.g., by doubling the crucial letter in one of the names and perhaps a different letter in the other), as a professional (paid) translate team should be supposed to do.
In Russian, Drakon and Dracon have the same name spelling (Дракон, ''Drakon''), since letters C and K are transliterated in the same way, namely as K (e.g. [[Korbac]] is "Корбак", ''Korbak'', in Russian).
 
(Interestingly, [[Mutare Drake]] is known in Russian by a freestyle phonetical transcription of her name, as ''Мутаре Дрэйк,'' which, while maneuvers away from more unwelcome matches, in the same time makes the name less meaningful for a Russian localization adept, rather bringing to mind references to famous people with Drake being their last name than anything drake-ish.)
