Dorcas is a name of Hebrew origin, so it carries no rashi or nakshatra. Those belong to the Vedic naming tradition, where a starting syllable is matched to a child's birth star. Outside that tradition a zodiac sign is set by the date of birth, never by the name — a child called Dorcas could be born under any sign. Make a Vedic Kundali to find the real one from date, time and place of birth.
