The word for today is…
camaraderie (noun):
: a spirit of friendly good-fellowship
Source : Merriam -Webster
Etymology : Camaraderie made its first appearance in English in the middle of the 19th century. It comes from camarade, the French word whose Middle French ancestor was also the source for our word comrade. In Middle French, camarade was used to mean “roommate,” “companion,” or “a group sleeping in one room.” It derived by way of Old Spanish from the Late Latin camera, or camara, meaning “chamber.” We also have the word comradery, which means the same thing as camaraderie but did not take the same etymological route as its synonym. That word, formed by attaching the -ry suffix (as found in wizardry and citizenry) to comrade, didn’t appear in English until almost 40 years after camaraderie.
