Feb-13-04 | | shr0pshire: The 2004 German Champ! |
|
Feb-13-04 | | ughaibu: No relation to Roland Graf? |
|
Feb-13-04 | | WMD: The chess player formerly known as Alexander Nenashev. Very, very strong grandmaster. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | Bitzovich: Why did he change his name from Nenashev to Graf? Is it some sort of pseudonym? Grad means "Count" in Russian. |
|
Feb-13-04
 | | chessgames.com: Are you saying this is the same person as Alexander Nenashev ? |
|
Feb-13-04 | | aragorn69: Graf means "Count" in German.
Does "Nanishev" means anything in Russian ? |
|
Feb-13-04 | | WMD: >>Are you saying this is the same person as Alexander Nenashev?<< I thought this was common knowledge. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | ughaibu: We the members of Chessgames.com specialise in uncommon knowledge. |

 | | tamar: Yes, it is true. He had a German father whose name was Graf, and decided to use his name. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | technical draw: <tamar> How do you "decide" to use your father's name? Isn't it a given? |
|
Feb-13-04
 | | tamar: There are examples like Kasparov of using the mother's name. The German Chessbase stories in 1999 did not specify, but said when he repatriated to Germany, he decided to use his German father's name. |

Feb-13-04 | | PinkPanther: <chessgames.com>
Yes, I mentioned that on this website quite a while ago. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | tud: Harry Weinstein did not sound for communist Russia very sexy. Welcome Garry Kasparov. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | PinkPanther: <tud>
Doesn't sound very sexy to me either. By the way, Vladimir Kramnik's name is actually Sokolov. |
|
Feb-13-04 | | marcus13: How Vladimir Kramnik name can be solokov??? |
|
Feb-14-04
 | | chessgames.com: We decided to merge the games from the two player records into one page. Thanks for your info. |

Feb-14-04 | | marcus13: Thanks strange coincidence isn't it. |
|
Feb-14-04 | | Bitzovich: Wow, i t has some really PIQUANT info on Kramnik in that interview... |
|
Feb-15-04 | | Lawrence: PP, if you read the chessbase.com article you will see that Vladimir Kramnik's name was never Sokolov. |
|
Feb-15-04 | | PinkPanther: No but his dad's name was and therefore his should have been. The name Sokolov "is in his blood", the name Kramnik isn't. It's simply a name his father assumed and passed down to him. |
|
Apr-06-04 | | Vischer: Vladimir Sokolov? |
|
Jul-29-04 | | Giancarlo: This guy is the german champ? |
|
Aug-17-04 | | Kaspy2: and upcoming... |
