I glanced at the Discourse over this and there's some arguing over whether Lev Bronstein/Leon Trotsky's birth name was actually the Russian or the Hebrew "Lev" and whether saying it's the first one is erasing his Jewishness etc. (even though his family was super assimilated)

Oh, ha, the wiki says it's really obviously a reference to the protagonist of the novel City of Thieves (which takes place in Leningrad during WWII) By David Benioff, one of the writers on the Game of Thrones TV show
