Пятилетка is a 5-year national economic plan.
This was mentioned in Bulgakov's "Dog's Heart" novel. His character Sharik (former dog) was called Poligraf Poligrafovich Sharikov by advice from local communist leaders when he turned into human. The first name was from a wall calender that had funny names for each day of the year.
I personally know a woman with a name ЭДИ, which means: Это Девочка Ильича (this is a girl of Lenin). My mohters first name is Люция, which is a part of РевоЛюция? She got a brother with name Реф (he changed on letter in his original name Рев).

I know that Революция is not a Russian word, but the name definately is.
