To create organization (this is from seven-cogs StartupAction.java)

long userId = defaultUserId;
long parentOrganizationId = OrganizationConstants.DEFAULT_PARENT_ORGANIZATION_ID;

String name = "7Cogs, Inc.";
String type = OrganizationConstants.TYPE_REGULAR_ORGANIZATION;

boolean recursable = true;
long regionId = 0;
long countryId = 0;
int statusId = GetterUtil.getInteger(PropsUtil.get("sql.data.com.liferay.portal.model.ListType.organization.status"));
String comments = null;

ServiceContext serviceContext = new ServiceContext();

serviceContext.setAddCommunityPermissions(true);
serviceContext.setAddGuestPermissions(true);

Organization organization =
        OrganizationLocalServiceUtil.addOrganization(
        userId, parentOrganizationId, name, type, recursable, regionId,
        countryId, statusId, comments, serviceContext);

Group group = organization.getGroup();
GroupLocalServiceUtil.updateFriendlyURL(group.getGroupId(), "/7cogs");

Are you sure that you need two organizations and not two communities?

UPDATE for question in comment:

To get organization name in theme (velovity) you can use (if you are in organization’s pages (group))

In portal-ext.properties

journal.template.velocity.restricted.variables=

In theme vm file

Liferay 6

#set($os = $serviceLocator.findService("com.liferay.portal.service.OrganizationLocalService"))
#set($organization = $os.getOrganization($themeDisplay.getScopeGroup().getOrganizationId()))
$organization.getName()

Liferay 5.x

#set($os = $serviceLocator.findService("com.liferay.portal.service.OrganizationLocalServiceUtil"))
#set($organization = $os.getOrganization($themeDisplay.getScopeGroup().getOrganizationId()))
$organization.getName()

EDIT:

If your user is member of organization(s) than you can use

#foreach($org in $themeDisplay.getUser().getOrganizations())
    $org.getName()<br>
#end

Take note that user can be member of multiple organizations and you will get all of them.
