It isn't as simple as Russia changing its name. No single nation "became the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics" And it wasn't in 1917. In 1922, Russia, Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation (a union of Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) joined together to form the USSR by entering into the Treaty of the Soviet Union. As time went on other nearby republics either joined or were absorbed into the USSR.
