It is normal you are confused, the naming around MinGW is a mess, and even worse if you add MSYS2. In this case mingw32 simply means MinGW, which comes from the "old" MinGW32 project (as it was originally named) and applies too to the "new" MinGW-w64, w64 means the MinGW-w64 runtime and x86_64 is the hardware architecture.
