ft/s; mi/h; km/h; m/s; cm/s

These mean feet per second; miles per hour; kilometers per hour; meters per second; and centimeter per second.

These are the most common units given for speed. (However, velocity and speed are not the same thing. Velocity includes the directionality of the speed.)

Velocity may be expressed as cms-1 in CGS unit and as ms-1 in SI unit.

Velocity can be expressed in units of distance over time such as meters per second, miles per hour, feet per second.

Or as any unit of distance, divided by any unit of time. The SI unit is meters/second. A commonly used unit is kilometers/hour.

The SI unit is meters/second, but any length unit divided by any time unit may be used, for example kilometers per hour, cm/minute, AU/week, etc.

m/s

(any unit of length) / (any unit of time)

What is a synonym for velocity?

There is no synonym to velocity. there is no directionality in velocity. speed is a measure of rotation around a center expressed in revolutions per unit of time. Velocity is a measure of distance in units of time with no direction. Vectors indicate direction.
