Elliptical spheroid.





Also there is a difference between an ellipse and an oval. An oval is a generic term for anything ';egg'; shaped. Hence the name oval from the Latin ova.





An ellipse is a mathematical figure that is defined as a shape having all points on it's perimeter where the sum of the distances from two points called focuses, or focii, are equal.
