The Ainu were referred to as “Kurile”, “Kamchatka Kurile”. Under Soviet rule, anyone with an Ainu surname risked being sent to a gulag or labor camp, since they were often mistaken for Japanese. As a result, many Ainu changed their surnames to Slavic sounding ones.
Families who are the descended from Kuril Ainu include Butin (Бутины), Storozhev (Сторожевы), Ignatiev (Игнатьевы), Merlin (Мерлины), Konev (Коневы), Lukaszewski (Лукашевские), and Novograblenny (Новограбленные).

religion, shinto, ko-shinto, animism
The Ainu are traditionally animists, believing that everything in nature has a kamuy (spirit or god) on the inside.
while shinto, it is likely that ainu would sooner support christianity than buddism as they reject learning from book or recite rather than a god or gods themself,
like wise it is noted that they seem to use any tool capable of helping them thrive especially hunt, as such guns are acceptable new tool
