People confuse polygamy with polygyny.
Polygamy is when one person can marry multiple people.
Polygyny is when one person can marry multiple women.
Polyandry is when one person can marry multiple men.
There's no specific word for when one person can marry multiple nonbinary people.
Polyphony?
When your synthesizer can play more then one note at a time
I remember school when the first kid played polyphonic ring signals... Was revolutionary! So much noise
Didn't they make donkey kong?
Polyamory sounds close; if you presume that the other people would be allowed multiple marriages as well.
