Ian main preparation is his name, opponents waste all their time and energy to memorize the spelling, they get little to no time to prepare for his openings.

This is actually very respectful. Instead of asking him he checks the table to not distract Ian from his chain of thoughts.

It's even funnier if you know, that Nepomniachtchi means "forgetful" in russian. Or, more correctly "a person who doesn't remember."

Interesting. Nepo is top GM with the simplest first name and at the same time with the most complicated last name

His preparation only went as far as letter 11, after that he ran out of theory and needed to improvise.

Ian's surname is fairly simple in cyrillic, they just made it unnecessarily complicated in Latin alphabet.

That's option 1
Option 2: "am I still over 2700?"
Option 3: "how to draw a FIDE flag" tutorial

His memory is incredible... he remembered it by looking at it once!

If any of you have ever thought what his name means, it can be translated as oblivious or forgetful
