The Blinkova Name Tape carries the Cyrillic inscription “БЛИНКОВА Д.М.,” rendered in English as Blinkova D. M. The surname comes first, followed by two personal initials and their punctuation. The entire inscription occupies one horizontal line. This example has green lettering on a dark brown field, enclosed by a green rectangular border.

The surname Блинкова is rendered as Blinkova and ends in the visible Cyrillic А. The final a is part of the written surname and is retained in the English title. Б corresponds to B and В to V. The initials Д.М. are transcribed as D. M., preserving their order after the surname.

In Russian personal naming, a surname followed by two initials normally abbreviates the given name and patronymic. A patronymic is the additional personal name derived from a parent’s given name. The two abbreviated letters consequently have different functions from a military rank, service abbreviation or unit number. This Blinkova Cyrillic identification preserves the initials in the order actually shown, with no expanded first name added to the catalogue entry.

Green capitals and a green border appear against a dark brown field. The name occupies the left side of the strip, with the initials set apart near the right end. No extra word appears between them.

Russian uniform nomenclature includes separate chest labels for the organization and for the wearer’s surname with initials. The personal-name format is the relevant comparison for this green letter name strip. An organization label would instead spell out a service or institution, while a blood-group tab would use a group letter and Rh notation. Here, the identifying content is the written name itself, so the surname and abbreviated personal names remain together in the product title and transcription.

The Russian Blinkova uniform tab can be read through both its original Cyrillic wording and its Latin transcription. Transliteration changes the alphabet used to write the name; it does not translate the surname into an English word. Keeping both forms is useful when comparing Russian labels with English-language inventories, especially where Cyrillic capitals resemble Latin letters but represent different sounds. The photographed combination of spelling, initials, field and border is retained as the identifying description of this individual example.
