I've always thought it was just Oprah, and a bunch of sources list the whole Orpah (after the chicky from the Book of Ruth -- my Sunday School upbringing should have known that!) things as an urban legend, but since imdb says Orpah, I'll go with that.
(Still thinks it's just Oprah.)

Congrats to all who correctly answered "Orpah." There are several cited reasons as to why it was changed. Most popular was the easy flow of "Oprah." I will get your names to the "Point Master" today.
