There are no common names for these terms. They are precise scientific terms. There are many different types of synovial joint with different ranges of movement

Synovial joints are usually freely moveable (within the constraints of the joint they are in). They contain synovial fluid which helps with the smoothness of movement, acts as a buffer against mechanical shock and avoids friction. Examples of synovial joints include:
Hip joint (ball and socket joint)
Elbow joint (hinge joint)

A) Sharon
B) Vicky
C) Chelsea
And of course the 'Synovial' can move quite freely except when it has had a few shandies and feels a bit knackered.

They are different things related to movement of the skeleton, vaguely 'connective tissues'
A synovial joint facilitates movement, the degree depends on which joint but I do not know of any fixed synovial joints.
