Bolshevik
Lenin took control of the more radical Bolshevik faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party. This faction ultimately became its own party, the Bolshevik Party and in 1918 became the Communist Party.
The first Communist Party started in the Soviet Union when the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party split in two and the Bolshevik faction (founded in 1912) became the Communist Party and then suppressed the other faction. The name Russian Communist Party was adopted in 1918.

The actual word is derived from the Russian word 'bolshe', which means more. Originally, the Bolsheviki (or Bolsheviks in English) were a radical faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party (RSDLP), a Marxist political party. The less radical faction of the RSDLP was called Mensheviki, derived from the word 'menshe', less. The Bolsheviks, of course, became the Russian Communist Party (the soviet union). The word "soviet" means "council" in Russian.

They called themselves the Bolsheviks, which in Russian means 'majorityites'. This term was misleading, because it arose at the 1903 at the Russian Social Democratic Party (Marxists) Congress in Brussels, when the party split into two factions over the issue of strictness of party discipline over its members. The Bolsheviks were actually the minority faction when a number of conservative members of the party walked out in protest at Lenin's agitations. This gave Lenin's more radical followers a temporary one vote majority. He seized this opportunity to name his faction Bolsheviviks. Lenin's faction was soon returned to its minority status but kept its majorityite name. The majority faction, for some reason, accepted the name Mensheviks, which meant minorityites. In March 1918, at the Bolsheviks' Seventh Party Congress, they adopted the name Communist. Please note: Prior to the October Revolution there was another socialist political party named "Socialist Revolutionaries." Although this question specifically refers to "socialist revolutionaries," it is obvious that it actually contemplates the Bolshevik Party, since the Bolshevik Party changed its name to the Communist Party in March 1918. The Socialist Revolutionaries, as a party disappeared when the Bolsheviks abolished all political parties but their own.
Vladimir Illytch Ulianov (Lenin) along with Lev Bronstein (Trotsky) were the prime movers in the Russian revolution in 1917. They went on to establish the USSR, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the most powerful Communist nation in history. After Lenins death in 1924 Stalin became its leader. Trotsky was murdered in Mexico in 1940. The political group Lenin was associated with was the Bolshevik Party, a small but radical faction of the Marxist Russian Social Democratic Workers Party. In March 1918, the Bolshevik Party changed its name to the Communist Party.
