Help[Surname] Legitimate Russian surnames?
Does anyone know if the following surnames are legitimate Russian surnames?
Khasinau
Derevko
Some may recognize these as surnames of characters on the TV series Alias. On these series, the characters were Russian. Are these legitimate Russian surnames, or ficticious names altogether?
Thank you so much! :-)

Derevko is a genuine surname, Russian or Ukrainian. There are also Derevkov and Derevnyuk. They might be from the Russian dérevo, meaning "tree", or from derévnya, "village".
Khasinau means nothing to me.
