Due to the bug #1871268 had to use a daily installer (downloaded yesterday, so might be the previous version already (07.10.2020). Choosing russian language during installation (btw suggested by default after choosing russian language at the beginning of the installation) didn't make the "en>" icon to appear at the top panel of Gnome and, obviously, didn't allow me to type in russian letters in the check box. Though it did work just fine with the usual installer from Ubuntu's main webpage, but, again, I used the daily installer to avoid a crash during installation.
After the installation was complete, I had both layouts added, working fine, just as I selected during the installation process. So, I had the ability to change the name (not the "username") of the user, since, initially, I wanted to type it in in russian letters, but couldn't do it during the installation process since any other keyboard layouts (I've clicked through a couple) didn't work.
