Do you really want spooky?
If you believe that Putin is related to the Putyanin clan
Look at this photo
Dmitri Loman, Rasputin, Mikhail Putyanin
Does anyone have a family resemblance to Rasputin?
Let's explain his name. Three parts
Ras - put - in
We will start at the right and go left
IN is a suffix meaning of similar to the DE at the beginning of French names.
PUT means PATH in Russian. So someone who lived outside the village, along the path to... might end up with the surname Putin. Of the path.
RAS is a prefix meaning something like TAKE APART or BREAK or DIVERT
It is related to the English word RAZOR which is a thing which does WHAT to beards. REMOVES them, DESTROYS them. For example, the Russian word meaning UPSET is RAS-STROYEN
STROYEN means something like BUILT, CONSTRUCTED, TOGETHER.
When soldiers are lined up at attention, that is also called STROYEN.
So RAS- describes whatever leads from STROYEN to UPSET.
Now back to Rasputin. His name effectively means OFF THE PATH, DERAILED. And isn't that what his actions did to the Tsar's family?
Putin on the other hand refers to ON THE PATH. And isn't that what he has done to Russia after the defeat of the Communists.
Putin is a BUILDER. Builder in RUSSIAN is STROITEL which contains the word STROY and a suffix -TEL which refers to a BODY, i.e. PERSON who is involved with the thing in question.
Now look again at the Sochi Olympics opening ceremony and watch how the theme of RUSSIA THE BUILDER is repeated over and over through centuries of its history. I like to suggest starting at 1:41:30 which is the last country of the alphabet, in Cyrillic, i.e. Japan, followed by host Russia and then the show with its symbolism.

Wouldn't you rather have a strong relationship with a country that God has put ON THE PATH and which has such a strong drive to build? You could not wish for a better competitor to rebuild America and its infrastructure. Because to beat Russia at this game, you all have to rebuild America's infrastructure better than them. And you will never do this unless you spend a lot of time with Russia, learning what they have done, so that you can at least match them to begin with, and maybe do even better.
So get out there and LEARN RUSSIAN.
