Team definition
From συνζεύγνυμι, a person yoked with another: a yoke-fellow or colleague. Abbott-Smith also notes a capitalized spelling (Σύνζυγος) and treats a proper-name reading as probable at Phil 4:3 (γνήσιε σύζυγε). Whether the vocative there is a title or a name is not decided by this entry.
