Mos-kov-ski is correct. Also, those two spellings of his name are equally correct because the Russian Рахманинов can be transliterated into either form equally fine. I don't now how he personally spelled it in English.

Rachmaninoff both pronounced and signed his name "Rock Man Enough".

When he hit the bars, the first line with the ladies would inevitably be:

"Hey baby, wanna know why they call me..."
