The suffix "hedron" implies 3D. The 2D suffix is "gon"
A 2-d shape. The suffix -gon indicates a 2-d shape while -hedron indicates a 3-d shape.
16 sides a hexadecagon means hexa (6) and deca (10) and gon (shape (?)) The suffix "-gon" means an angle or vertex.
A 77-sided shape is called a heptacontaheptagon. The prefix "hepta-" means seven, and the suffix "-gon" denotes a polygon with that number of sides. A heptacontaheptagon has 77 angles and 77 sides, making it a highly complex and rare geometric figure.
A 68-sided polygon is called an "68-gon." The naming convention for polygons follows the Greek numerical prefixes, where the number of sides is combined with the suffix "-gon." In this case, "hexacontakaiheptagon" is the technically correct term, but "68-gon" is more commonly used for simplicity.
