How about "overlapped twin diamonds"?

This may have been what Coop said, and people had trouble seeing it, but that doesn't mean that it's bad terminology, just that it's a new thing that takes some practice to see..

I think "offset triple boxes" is good terminology, but if someone had introduced this by just calling it without explanation, there would have been very little success on the floor.

I think "overlapped X" consistently means "some people are in one instance of X, while others are in a different instance of X, rotated 50% from the first". We say "overlapped diamonds" and "overlapped waves", plural, because there are two copies of the pair of overlapped formations; it's not Overlapped(DIamonds), it's ,[Overlapped(DIamond)]s. In two-couple material, I think you'd say "overlapped diamond", rather than "overlapped diamond"

I meant "overlapped diamond" instead of "overlapped diamonds". I need to proofread better.

In the thing Coop called, the two overlapped formations are each a copy of the 8-person formation "twin diamonds", so I would call it "overlapped twin diamonds".

As Justin says, it’s just like C1 phantoms, but for diamonds. Would “C1 phantom diamonds” work?

This seems like an application of "phantom" as in C1 phantom or c4 phantom C/L/W, so I would want "phantom diamonds" (as distinct from "split" or "twin" phantom).
