...the more extreme Hussites soon became known as the Taborites ... or
Orphans (sirotci) a name they adopted after the death of their beloved
leader and general Jan Žižka.

According to Turnbull, the Orebites rather than the Taborites used the name "Orphans". Although I see very few references to the Orebites apart from in his book, and it appears they would often be lumped in together with the Taborites. Is it worth noting the distinction between the Taborites and Orebites here?
