Besides the month name there is the given name Januarius borne by some early Christian saints. But I'm not sure if this is leading to something.

Edit: I checked the list of popes and there is no Januarius in there.

Update; it apparently is Yanuariy (Януарий) not Yanvariy so likely not from there...

In Russian it would be Январий (Yanvariy) so it is possible... if it is there is peobably also surname Yanvaryev (Январьев)

I think it is strange that it is Январёв not Январьёв.. if from name Yanvariy is more likely it have ь than not have ь.
