Alexander Nevsky’s grandson, Ivan I (1328-1341) known to history as ‘Kalita’ meaning ‘moneybags’ acquired the title of ‘Grand Prince’ of Moscow from the Khan. His ‘Moneybags’ name came from his scrupulous collection of tribute for the Khan. He collected not only for his own lands but from other Princes as well. This earned the Khans’ great pleasure, of course, and allowed Ivan to gain independence and influence far beyond Moscow. He was even able to establish Moscow as the seat of the powerful Russian Orthodox Church, with the Khan’s approval, of course.
So it's either Ivan I or Ivan K
