Female resident of Poland or Israel? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

doris

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'female resident' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'of poland or israel?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'DORIS' is hidden in the letters of 'poland or israel'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for doris that I've seen before include "Woman's name" , "-- Day, actress" , "Girl" , "Woman" , "Female name" .)
