does anyone know the mathematical name for the origami structure often called
"Spinner". See first image of this page:

I thought it was a skeletal octahedron, however it doesn't have the central
divider so... could it be a sunken square bipyramid? That's probably just as
bad. Any ideas?
------------------
Florence Temko called it an Executive Toy in her book, Paper Pandas and
Jumping Frog. And when made from a dollar bill, it is Annie's Spinner (not her
two color spinner)
What Central Divider do you mean? what am I missing? I would, and do, call it
a skeletal octahedron.
