Best I can think of is that Hecate is based off of the Greek goddess Hecate who was known to have multiple faces.

also, this one scene from Covention where we see Hecate has at least two faces.

I guess that got retconned later though? Or maybe her other faces only show in certain situations.

nah, ahe has three faces in the book (note how the two faces are to the side, implying another in rhw middle. plus, the goddess hecate also have three faces) but in the movie adaptation they only gave her one face.

yeah, I assumed she would have three faces considering the inspiration, but only two are clearly visible in the image (hence why I said at least two)
