θ² Orionis consists of three stars in a line, each about an arc-minute from the next.
 In addition to the well-known three stars, the Washington Double Star Catalog confusingly lists a component D which is actually θ¹ Orionis C.
There is one other star brighter than 10th magnitude in the region.
 V1073 Orionis is a B9.5 Orion variable that forms an equilateral triangle with θ² Ori B and C.
Bizarrely, θ² Orionis C has a second entry in the Washington Double Star Catalog under the name S490.
 The companion is 10th magnitude and actually lies between θ² Ori B and V1073 Ori.

θ¹ Orionis, the well known Trapezium cluster, is only 2 arc minutes away from θ² Orionis A.  Despite the names, θ² Orionis A is marginally brighter than the brightest star in the Trapezium.
 The Catalog of Components of Double and Multiple Stars includes the stars of θ¹ and θ² Ori within the same system of 13 components.

There are dozens of much fainter stars in the same field, many of them pre-main-sequence stars still forming from the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex.
