Nomenclature
- Named for Georg Samuel Doerfel, a German astronomer (1643-1688).
- The name Montes Doerfel, for some peaks seen at the limb, was given by Johann Schröter and adopted by the IAU. Although later discontinued it was printed on some of the modern moon maps. The crater Doerfel is in the same general area.
