New to BMW E90, E91, E92 what does that mean?

I am new to BMW. I have a 2006 330i which I think is a E90? Am I correct in thinking that this is a model designation? What is a E91, 92 ect. Sorry for the dumb question.

I pity the fool that reanimates a 9yr old thread like this with his first forum post here, especially when google is an actual thing.
Welcome though. I guess.
