There is?????? The European pressure limits have always been slightly higher. Since the 9x19mm/Parabellum originated in Europe, just why would going by the original specs result in a change in nomenclature?

Pretty much all the NATO spec did was get all parties to agree to deliver 9mm ammo to the same (european) specifications.
