During the lesson, I typically identify the others in the minor set as your partner, your neighbor, and the person you can ignore because they don’t really matter much to you.

Same-role neighbor; but usually I don't bother identifying that person as I orient folks in a lesson. I just talk about the folks you have hands with.

I've used several designations, depending on the context:

Same-role neighbor 
Diagonal neighbor 
Diagonal 

Or I might have fun pointing out that your neighbor's partner is also your partner's neighbor, but you can call 'em Jay.

e.g.: "This is your partner, that is your neighbor, and that is _______."
