Correct.
Though all be mindful - these are NOT middle names. That, dear forum users, is an
otchestvo.
"
Dearest Sabratha.... what in the Eastern Orthodx heck is that otchestvo thing?" you might ask. Well, it is a patronymic. Basically your dad's name... the equivalent of scandinavian "son of Hrothgar", "Andersdottir" etc.
So Olegovich is "son of Oleg" and Alekseevna is "daughter of Aleksey".
*bows to the standing ovation of the whole forum*
