Peter, >Should I move them directly to official name and leave name empty?
That's the question. Without local knowledge any guess you make is only that, a guess. If you change it having your particular needs in mind, you might be accused of bringing a bias into the decision. We English-speaking mappers have a somewhat similar problem here in Thailand. There is a snall community of Thai mappers adding POIs. They often make a node, name it using Thai script, but don't say what it represents, shop, amenity, ?? And how can we communicate with them? You will probably face that problem in your dealings with those Russian(?) mappers if you try to ask them about the popular name of those ways. Good luck.
