Nothing wrong with your name. Remember, in the last year much has been said about America's diminished credibility in the world, it's reduced "soft power." As a result, the difference between the rest of the world's attitude toward The American People and The Current American Administration has been highlighted; in Iran, for instance, the difference is huge.
The same would apply to Russia. Putin/Medvedev and their administration do not represent the attitude and opinion of all Russians.
