Charles Edward Orman (6 September 1859 – 11 February 1927) was an English cricketer and soldier. He played two matches for Essex in 1896.[1]

He was commissioned in 1878 from the Royal Military College, Sandhurst,[2] and was promoted to major in the Essex Regiment in 1895.[3] In 1893 he married Blanche Lintorn Simmons, daughter of Field Marshal Sir Lintorn Simmons.[4] The Orman family adopted the surname of Lintorn-Orman by deed poll in 1912.[5] His daughter, Rotha Lintorn-Orman, founded the fascist paramilitary organisation, the British Fascisti.[6]
