It depends exactly what you mean by diamond shape
If you have two adjacent sides congruent (same length) and another pair of adjacent sides also congruent... so it looks like a kite.... you have what we call a deltoid.
Deltoids look like kites. The two sides on the top are the same length, and the two sides on the bottom are the same length. The two angles on the sides (where one side of a particular length meets a side of a different length), those angles opposite one another are also congruent (same measure). Diagonals are perpendicular
Now, a deltoid that has all four sides congruent to one another, so it looks more like a proper diamond... that is called a rhombus. Opposite angles are congruent. Adjacent angles are supplementary. Diagonal are perpendicular to one another also, but they also bisect one another.
A rhombus whose angles are all right angles is a square.

What is the correct name for a 3D diamond shape?
The correct name for a 3D diamond shape is a rhombic dodecahedron. This polyhedron has 12 congruent rhombus-shaped faces and is a type of dodecahedron, which is a polyhedron with 12 faces. The term "diamond" is often used colloquially to describe this shape due to its resemblance to the face of a cut diamond.
Is a square a diamond shape?
No, a diamond is not normally cut into a square shape.
What is the mathematical name for diamond?
You probably mean the rhombus.
What fraction is equal to the mathematical term pi?
The mathematical term of pi is approximated equal to 22/7. :)
What is the mathematical term for the distance around the shape of a rectangle means?
Circumference. If you have a rectangle, then the circumference (length of the sides) is equal to 2*height + 2*width.
