Yes, there is. Some people refer to the DX2-66 as a DX2-33, as the "2" means doubled. I think Pournelle was the first person I heard use this. It's not the correct term, Intel has always referred to the DX2-66 as just that. But it's not necessarily incorrec either, the "2" after the DX should be indication enough.
