Narrative:
Intersections on the charts in russian airspace are different than the intersections in the FMC. Ex. Gruma on the chart is now agemo in the FMC. This problem was found on 4 intersections on one flight. We had our charts out following our route and were very confused by the difference. Led to a few questions to the russian controllers.
