The "October Revolution" is another name, but not a 'nickname' of the Bolshevik Revolution. In fact, the October Revolution has come to be the preferred, perhaps even formal, historical name for the event in order to distinguish the Bolshevik Revolution from the one that occurred in February (Russian calendar) which has come to be known as the February Revolution.
Revolutionary War
The 1917 Russian Revolution was made up of the February Revolution, in which Czar Nicholas II was deposed and the Czarist regime overthrown, and the October Revolution, in which the Bolsheviks overthrew the provisional government, took power in their own name and eventually changed their name to Communists. There was also a revolution in 1905, which accomplished little more than establishment of the Russian Duma, a weak parliamentary style governing body. Czar Nicholas retained most power in government.

There was no revolution in Russia in 1905. There was the Russian Bloody Sunday,but that was just a tragic event, not a war.

From the guys who fought in the American Revolution on the side of America.
"Russia" or "the Russian Empire" was the old name of the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic. Immediately after the October Revolution of 1917, the ruling Bolsheviks changed the name.
