What kind of Orchid is this?

Hi all,
I've only ever owned Phals and I'm having trouble doing picture searches online for this one. Just want to make sure I'm caring for it properly. What kind is it and is it similar to taking...

Yes, I'll repot to a smaller pot. You mentioned that will help it dry out faster, but should I use the same medium that it's in now, or repot into a fresh batch? I would think the latter, right? ...

Is this a keiki & should I repot it?

The part on the right is the older/original plant that I brought back to life. While I was giving it lots of kelp extract about a year go, the left part sprouted. Is that a keiki? Should I...

I wondered about that, Campchi. Do you think repotting to a better pot will stress it out too much, though? There are a few holes on the side of the current pot, but not many.

Thanks Mimigirl. I was actually going to ask about misting the roots. It seems like the plant is sitting up above the medium a lot more than my other phals. Didn't know if that's a good or bad...
