Since you described it as 2 sets of parallel sides, I'll assume you meant a 4 sided polygon(quadrilateral). This special case is called a rhombus.
General term for a polygon with 4 sides is a quadrilateral. A parallelogram is the special case with two pairs of parallel sides.
parallelogram
You can construct any polygon with more than 4 sides such that two sides are parallel. A quadrilateral in which two lines are parallel is called a trapezoid.
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four 'sides' . A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides.

A square is a regular polygon with two sets of parallel sides. A parallelogram is an irregular polygon with one set of parallel sides. A rhombus is an irregular polygon with two sets of parallel sides. A rectangle is an irregular polygon with two sets of parallel sides. *Note - a regular polygon is a shape in which all sides are equal in length and all angles are equal in measurement.
Parallelogram
General term for a polygon with 4 sides is a quadrilateral. A parallelogram is the special case with two pairs of parallel sides.
parallelogram
A quadrilateral or a pentagon can have up to 2 pairs of parallel sides.A hexagon or heptagon can have up to 3 pairs of parallel sides.and so on.So, apart from a triangle, any polygon can have two sets of parallel sides.
You can construct any polygon with more than 4 sides such that two sides are parallel. A quadrilateral in which two lines are parallel is called a trapezoid.

Rectangle
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four 'sides' . A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides.
A HEXAGON. Opposite sides of a regular hexagon are parallel. There being three sets set at different angles.
