Just like the pictures show.
The one is sort of a hybrid but I would call it a slip spoke. The split is just delayed a bit.
I see your point... but what’s this then?

& there are few other wheels I can think of few other wheels I saw, but can’t find it atm

Mesh. All mesh. Also horribly ugly.

Oh, just make something up to tell her, then she will jump on the internet and research it and let you know.

Advantages:

* it will give her something to do for a while

* she will feel good about her wheel knowledge over yours

* she may get interested and encourage to buy new wheels - OR, that could backfire when she finds out how expensive they are -
