Yes, the names of enum members should be considered labels, not descriptions. They're strings only for the convenience of programmers working with them, just like variable names, which would more efficiently be written $1, $2, etc. Your enum value might be State::OFF_MAP_E, which would be looked up in a database or translation library to the appropriate translation of "You are off the East side of the map".
