They're quadrilaterals. Also quadrangles, but I don't know who uses that.

A plane figure consisting of four points, each of which is joined to two other points by a line segment (where the line segments may intersect). A quadrangle may therefore be concave or convex; if it is convex, it is called a quadrilateral.
