There are several different types of "9mm" calibers (9x18, 9x19, 9x21, 9x23). All are different chamberings, and cannot generally be used in the same guns.
The common round in the US (and the standard NATO handgun round) is the 9x19. This is also called 9mm Luger or 9mm Parabellum, and should be what works in your FEG.
I would recommend that you stay away from the 9mm Luger "+P" ammo (usually sold as self-defense ammo because of its higher velocities), unless you know for sure that your FEG is strong enough to handle the increased pressure.

The 9mm Luger and 9mm Parabellum round (both 9x19mm) are the same and will work in your FEG P9R.
A 9mm Makarov (9x18mm) will not work and neither will a 9mm Short (9x17mm) aka .380 ACP aka 9mm Browning.

First and foremost, you should have your gun checked by a competent gunsmith. (1) to see if it is in good enough condition to fire. (2) To be sure that you are buying the correct ammo, if you're not sure. That being said, here is the answer to your question.
The 9x19mm Parabellum (abbreviated 9x19mm or 9x19) cartridge was designed by George Luger and introduced in 1902 by the German weapons manufacturer Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) for their Luger semi-automatic pistol. For this reason, it is commonly called the 9mm Luger cartridge, differentiating it from the also-popular 9mm Makarov and 9mm Browning cartridges.
