Russian

Владимир Ильич Ульянов, 1895 г.

Etymology

Ulyanov adopted the nom de guerre of "Lenin" in December 1901, possibly taking the River Lena as a basis (Лена + possessive-adjective suffix -ин), thereby imitating the manner in which Georgi Plekhanov had adopted the pseudonym on "Volgin" after the River Volga.
