There is no mathematical limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have. As the number of sides increases the polygon will become more and more like a closed curve - a regular polygon will become like a circle. The size of the polygon and accuracy of measurement will determine when it is no longer possible to distinguish between the polygon and the curve. Nevertheless, the two shapes will be mathematically different objects.
a TRIGON ( THREE(3) More commonly nAMED AS A TRIANGLE.
Well, it is all in personal opinion, but the funniest named polygon would be the 'nonagon' (non-uh-gon), which is a nine-sided polygon.
A twelve sided polygon is called a dodecagon.
Technically, a polygon can have an unlimited number of sides.

How is a polygon named?
hi polygons are named according to their no of sides for example a polygon having 5 sides is named as pentagon polygon having 6 sides is known as hexagon 7 sides has named as heptagon and so on

The name of a 5 sided polygon is Pentagon.
The name of a 12 sided polygon is Dodecagon.
A twelve sided polygon is called a dodecagon.
A 38-sided polygon would be named a triacontaoctagon.
