Alicia Boole Stott

Alicia Boole Stott (8 June 1860 – 17 December 1940) was an Irish mathematician.

She is best known for introducing the term "polytope" for a convex solid in four (or more) dimensions, and having an impressive grasp of four-dimensional geometry from a very early age. (Wikipedia).
