Homonyms may be homographs or homophones or both. But I'd like to suggest a portmanteau be used when a word is specifically both:

homophaph

So row (a verb meaning to propel a boat with oars) and row (a noun for a line of items) are homonyms that are both homographs and homophones and, thus, are homophaphs.

Thank you. Have a great day.
