I believe it was called "Operation Overlord." "D-Day" is a generic term used in planning any military action. It makes it easy to plan and move the start time/date without rewriting each individual date, e.g. "d-day plus one." The code name of the whole operation was OVERLORD; of the naval part of the operation, NEPTUNE.
