just a bit of misunderstanding here ) First "за АндреЯ Шаховского". Second "(the nominative is Шаховскои)" - ШаховскоЙ
These 2 little incorrections make me think that a real last name of Андрей is ШаховскИЙ. The both of Шаховской and Шаховский may be a correct russian last names. What's intertesting, both of them will be the same in accusative - Шаховского. The only difference might be in voice pronouncing. If it's Шаховский, the accent will be at ШахОвского, and if it's Шаховской, the accent will be at ШаховскОго. Hope this helps )
