Atari ST also used strange shell/pin count connectors.
Calling them DB
is obviously not correct--calling them DB-ish might be closer to fact.
FWIW, they're pretty hard to find nowadays.
I just called them D-23, since the shell size didn't seemto have been
named/defined.
They weren't available when i got my Amiga, either.
But, I guess that there was a period in between when they might have been
available.
My business neighbor had a fully equipped machine shop for making
prototypes, but it was quite adequate for me to do crude work with a
dremel and a Unimat.
