Entity Framework (EF), NHibernate and Hibernate are full Object Relational Mappers (ORM).
EF and NHibernate are for .NET/C#. Hibernate is for Java.
Initially, Hibernate was developed and was in use for Java. Then after, it was ported to NHibernate for .NET/C#. Both are two different projects; developed and maintained separately.
Both NHibernate and Hibernate were structurally similar in beginning. I am not sure if that is the case now. But, many times, if I find solution for Hibernate on net, mostly the same (or similar) works for NHibernate as well. I never used Hibernate, so I cannot say about there similarity for sure; but as per my observation, they are near to same.
