It seems odd that a Russian would name blocks after US states.
This is fake. They do have names, but they are: L, J, Z, S, I, T, and O.
What, no they’re ⅂, ᒋ, Z, S, I, T, and O.

I’m pretty sure that was a photocopied image unfortunately.

Korobeiniki is a folk song that’s older than the Soviet Union. The Red Army Choir played a lot of Russian folk music.
Smashboy top name for sure.
Smashboy and long girl
In the Puyo Puyo Tetris series there are characters named after the blocks but they use the letters that they resemble.
