Hired actors of the different nationalities, and half the movie they spoke in their native language, with subtitles.
Even if that makes it a littler harder to follow the storyline, at least the movie's credible this way.

Don't even start me on books...
In Robert Ludlum's (Bourne whatever) Matarese Circle, one of the main characters (male) is called Krupskaya...
1. It's a female name
2. The name doesn't exist
3. It was made specifically to be a pseudonim for Lenin's wife
4. She was the only one who actully ever had that name and it wasn't her own anyway...
If they bothered to stop one Russian on the street and ask them their opinion about using this last name...they would have received the same answer as above...i.e. do NOT use it...especially for a male...
