Naval architects call this lofting.
Consider fineness ratio. If a body is 1/2 as tall as it is wide the taper would be equal in plan and section. If the body is as tall as it is wide , or average, then the fineness ratio in plan is less, and the taper is...greater? Less?

Not pickin' on ya, but this ignores the bluff forebody that allows the aft portion to receive a uniform pressure around the profile.
