No, that's "Imbalance" accounts. "Orphan" accounts are created by deleting an account and somehow managing to not reassign its splits to another account. At the next file load or upon running "check and repair" GnuCash will create an "Orphan" account to hold those splits. Then there's "Orphaned Gains", the rather unfortunate name hard-coded into the Lots module for capital gains and losses.
