Yeah... that's one of their translation/romanization choices that I don't agree with. From what I remember from a thread I posted in in 2012, they decided to go with Oga as it shares the katakana with Ogre, "オーガ".
However, English words that corresponded to the katakana "オーガ" (that began with an o) also include organize (and derivatives like organization and organizer), orgasm, organic, etc...
It's interesting to note that almost all the English words that "オーガ" romanize to are words that are spelled with an 'r' to represent the long vowel in English.
Technically, while Oga isn't an incorrect romanization, officially, the English name for the character is Kamen Rider Orga. Whoever was in charge just took the most common spelling representation of the long vowel 'オー' in English, this being 'or', hence Orga.
