Those are called cognates. Cognates are words in two languages that have a similar meaning, spelling, and pronunciation due to shared linguistic roots.
The three relationships defined by a syntactic meaning are synonymy (words with similar meanings), antonymy (words with opposite meanings), and hyponymy (words that are more specific versions of a general term).
Some words that contain the root word "onym" are synonym (meaning a word with a similar meaning), antonym (meaning a word with the opposite meaning), and homonym (meaning a word that sounds the same but has a different meaning).
