It really is DE9. The D is the shape of the connector, the next letter (A-E)
is the size of the connector and the number is the pin count.

Hence you get:

	DA-15	DB-25	DC-37	DD-50	DE-9
and
	DE-15   (which is the high density SVGA connector).

The only ones that people seem to get correct are DB-25 and DD-50.
