Means "Many Loves". It means having multiple commited relationships with people you are mutally in love with, and everyone wants it to be that way.
This is not to be confused with swinging or multiple relationships, where you are sleeping with the other people or they are friends with bennies, whom you love. That is called non-monogamy, and to say it is polyamory is a lie.
"I told Brad I'm in love with him, and my husband Rick is very happy for us."
"That's cheating!"
"No, we're polyamorous. You can only cheat on rules that exist. We don't have an agreement to be exclusive. But an example of me cheating would be to not tell Rick that I'm in love, because the rule of honesty is right up there with the rule that the primary relationship comes first"
"I could never do that. I'm too jealous"
"Then don't."
"Are you sleeping with both these guys?"
"Now that I'm in love with both of them, yes. But you don't have to be having sex to be polyamorous, because what it means is that you are mutually in love with more than one person at a time. Most people do sleep with those they love, but sex is not what makes you poly"

Polyamorous is an adjective used to describe a broad non-monogamous practice. Monogamy is the practice of committing your heart to one person exclusivly. Non-monogamy is everything else including slutting around, polyfuckery, cheating, dating, polygamy to name but a few of the practically infinite ways you can be non-monogamous. What sets polyamory apart are three essential ingredients; romantic/sexual love, commitment and transparency.
To practice polyamory, all three ingredients must be present. Loving your partner/s with your whole heart, being committed to the ideals of loving them and being open and honest with them in at least relation to any other loves, sexual and romantic relationships you are in, and being respectful of each other and your respective relationships.
The practice emphasises ethical relationships, self-control and taking personal responsibility for your actions, as opposed to trying to deceive, control or blame others.
People like to claim they are polyamorous as an excuse to be dishonest, non-committed, selfish assholes in their relationships, this is not polyamory this is polyfuckery.
