I've been using Original Commenter (OC) to talk about the person who starts a comment thread. Seems to be pretty intuitive. Wonder what the acronym would be for commenters responding to OC and starting different comment branches. Probably makes sense to just use their name

OC already means Original Content so at best you will just be confusing people.

I feel like OP can be used to mean either the original thread poster or the author of a branching comment, granted that it's properly contextualized, e.g. multiple layers of O lol. It's awkward, but it gets the point across.
