Generic definition of Synthesis by Princeton University dictionary: The combination of ideas into a complex whole.
Even our FPGA synthesis tool does exactly that.
 
It combines our ideas (logic description) written in HDL into macros available in FPGA. However it is not a one-step process. Several optimization techniques are

FPGA vs ASIC – What is the Difference? (free calculator)
