I would call them "conserved" more than orthologues, I THINK it is more appropriate.
By definition orthologs are genes whose last common ancestor was a speciation event. You can't infer this from gene names or even just aligning two sequences. You need a phylogenetic tree. It could be that the genes were named the same because a phylogenetic tree shows them to be orthologous but you need to verify this before concluding that they are orthologs because they have the same name.
