When I put Paul into English to Russian translate, it says Pol, not Pavel, so how come Pavel is used?

Pol is Russian form of Paul as direct translation, e.g. Paul in English book will be Pol in Russian translation of book or famous people called Paul in Russian written as Pol (example: https://ru.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%B0%D0%BA%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%80%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8,_%D0%9F%D0%BE%D0%BB - Paul McCartney, Pol Makkartni) Pavel is Russian form of Paul that Russian people use as name.
