Super..... is faster than speed of light.
Is there similar terminology for it?

Superluminal.
super duper fast
Like shit off a shovel.
c
IIRC, nothing can go faster than the speed of light. Therefore no need for a word for it.
Nothing we currently know can go faster than the speed of light - so no word has been invented to define it.
Tachyon
Fromn the Greek menaing fast, quick, swift etc
Particles that always move above the speed of light are named this
It is debatable whether they exist but we tend to not have words for things that dont exist [ above light speed speeds] or we dont experience like say warm snow, dry rain etc
EDIT should have typed at Tachyon speeds but then again I could have answered before you asked with a tachyon telephone
FWIW Einsteins theory holds that nothing that can travel below the speed of light [ us for example] can exceed it. It is non commital on whether things can exist above it in all states but it would break causality if it could.
Warp speed 8)

Ok, rewording the OP:
Subsonic is slower than speed of sound...
Sub..... is slower than speed of light. Is there similar terminology for it?
[i]c[/i]
c is the speed of light
c+ would therefore be faster than the speed of light
Even faster would be c++
Warp speed would c#

Superluminal.
Isn't that the stuff that CSI spray on your bed so they can see where your primate was spanked?

Everything else?
My vote is for Superluminal.
Something is supersonic when it travels faster than the speed of sound [i]in the medium from which to speed of sound is defined[/i]
It's reasonable to have a word for something that travels faster than light travels in a medium which is not a vacuum, such as glass [~ (2/3)*c].

Cougar the suffix would be super in your example
But the speed of light is the speed of light in a vacuum
Everyone knows it can be exceeded as the spped of light is lowered as it propogates through matter
So you can exceed the speed of light , as long as it happens within other matter but not exceed the speed of light [ in a vacum]
I've seen Sub- and supra-luminal used in fiction literature, and tachyonic drive used as well.

Submarine!
Geddit?
Can I suggest the term "Maddona"?
Bradleyesque

Subsuper? Wut?
It doesn't need to be correct just sound cool and Superluminal ticks both those boxes, ta guys!
