Name difference in profile and watermarks in portfolio

Hello.

 

I'm  Russian speaking Ukrainian citizen and there is difference in my name in Russian and Ukrainian language which is official language.

 

I set my name in Upwork profile as "Ievgen Zakharov" according to my passport. But many of my portfolio works I did before I registered on Upwork and they have superimposed watermarks. Watermarks contains my name in my native language which is "Eugeny Zakharov".

 

Could this difference confuse clients?

Personally, I don't think I would be dissuaded because the last name is the same so it seems like a language issue. However, I would recommend maybe putting a note in each portoflio section quickly explaining the difference. 

Thanks, Maria.
