Cyclo alkanes consisting of two rings only and having two or more atoms in common are named by taking the

prefix "bicycle" followed by the name of the alkane/alkene/alkyne. In between bicyclo and alkane/alkene/alkyne, number of C-atoms representing the bridge (except bridgehead positions) are written within bracket. Bridgehead positions are those which join two rings.
