Depends on the pyramid. A pyramid with a square (or quadrilateral) base would indeed have 8 edges, but a pyramid can have any other polygon as a base.Depends on the pyramid.

A triangle if it is a triangular based pyramid
I would guess it is a pyramid that has a seven-sided polygon as its base.
A polygon with n sides, and n triangles, where n ≥ 3. Most commonly, the polygon at the base is a triangle or a square. If the base polygon is regular and the pyramid is a right pyramid (ie apex above the centre of the basal polygon), the triangles will be isosceles.
Subtract 1 from the number of vertices. Find the name of the polygon with that many sides. The pyramid has that polygon as its base. So, for example, 7 vertices. Subtract one and that gives 6. A six sided polygon is a hexagon. So the shape is a hexagon based (or hexagonal) pyramid.
A cylinder is a polygon that has circles as its base. A triangular pyramid is a polygon that has a triangle as its base.

All the faces of a pyramid MUST be polygons.
