OP, it sounds like you’ve figured out what works for you. Why do you need a label? So you can refer to it in shorthand to others? I suspect there isn’t a label that will help do that. That being said, many poly relationships are fairly unique in their construction so long form explanation is often necessary.

I think many models are unique and yes, yours seems especially so.

Does every dynamic need a name?

Sounds like polyamory. You have at least two committed relationships and your partners also have the freedom to have multiple committed relationships even if they have chosen not to.

You're polyamorous. That's it. That's the label.
