8 sides?
Originally it was called Vectis in Latin. Wight is an old word for man, so its current name means “Isle of man”.
Well that makes me wonder how many others are wrong on this map.
I'd say the bottom four sides are SSW, SSE, ESE, and SSE again. And the North four sides are the big curving bit on the right and then the three flat bits separated by the rivers.
