Do you know if there's a standard name and OID assigned to Dr.

Not yet.  See this thread:

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg10074.html

(In short, the argument was that an OID for Curve25519 is only useful if it's going to be used for signatures, and Curve25519 shouldn't directly be used for signatures; Ed25519 should be used instead.)
