The Battle of Normandy or the Normandy Campaign are used as operational names.

The Popular "Operation Overlord" is the name given to the entire western Allied campaign in France. This is sometimes confused with the name of the actual DDay landings campaign.The Normandy landings were operationally known as "Operation Neptune". This lasted until the landings were completed and the breakthrough into France began. This breakout campaign from Normandy into the rest of France during the Battle of Normandy is operationally known as "Operation Cobra"
