Polygamy

Polygyny was the act of having several wives at a time. Because of the low male birthrate among Cereans, it was a generally accepted practice on Cerea. Even Ki-Adi-Mundi was allowed to have multiple wives, despite the Jedi Order's tenets that forbade any emotional attachment.

Polygyny was also practiced by the Kaleesh.

Behind the scenes
Polygyny comes from the Greek poly ("many") and gyn ("woman"), and is a subcategory of the term polygamy.
