Prequaintance

Someone you know of or heard about, but have yet to meet.

Not an acquaintance but also not a stranger.

The stories of Helen, a prequaintance to Jorge, were so vivid when Javier told them, Jorge felt like he knew Helen before they met.

Frequaintance

Someone who you see often, but isn't your quite your friend.

Shane and I aren't really friends, we are more like frequaintances.

FreQuaintance

A person in your social circle who hovers between Friend and Aquaintance

Jim was headed to the bar, but standing there was Bob, a Frequaintance who was always happy to be offered a beer but never seemed to be around to buy one back
