Yes, that would be the English translation.

Thanks for the link -- I have been steered to some other sites already by people on the American Name Society listserve. It turns out that pastoral poetry was even bigger in Germany than England, and Doris occurs in some of the more famous poems, such as one by Christiane Mariane von Ziegler than Franz Joseph Haydn set to music.
