Orhan I (in turco ottomano اورخان غازی, in turco Orhan Gazi o Orhan Bey, ovvero Orkhan Ghazi e Orkhan Bey; in italiano: Orcano I; Söğüt, 1281 – Bursa, marzo 1362) fu il secondo bey - o capo - del nascente Impero ottomano. Regnò dal 1326 fino alla morte. Durante il regno di Orhan si ebbe il primo scontro (battaglia di Pelekanon) della storia fra i Bizantini, che ancora regnavano su parte dell'Anatolia e gli Ottomani, che ne uscirono vincitori. Inoltre dopo un assedio di quasi quattro anni gli Ottomani espugnarono con successo la roccaforte bizantina di Nicomedia, aprendosi così la strada verso Costantinopoli.
