Yep, ORD = Orchard.
I've heard stories that the original airfield was built where an orchard had been cleared, but the O'Hare website says that there was a farm town called Orchard Place there that the airfield was named for when it was build for Douglas and the war effort.
Donaldson Center Airport (where I am now) used to be 7A1 until 1998 when it was changed to GYH.
