Just had a glance myself though some brochures here: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Cadillac/dirindex.html
They often seem to say "Coupe de Ville" or "Coupe deVille", using a small 'd'. Sometimes it's "De Ville" with a big 'D', this seems to be mostly in the 1980s brochures. But in some brochures, it uses "DeVille" to emcompass the Sedan and Coupe models eg. "When you choose a DeVille, you can have either have the Coupe de Ville or the Sedan de Ville".
If you look through there's no real consistency, it changes between Coupe/Sedan deVille and Coupe/Sedan de Ville every other year.
Sometimes they even use both ways on the same page. On page 8 of this 1977 brochure, in the text it says "Coupe deVille" but the title at the bottom seems to say "Coupe de Ville":
