32184.dat     Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular  3L
32068.dat     Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular 3 Long
32291.dat     Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular Double
41678.dat     Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular Double Split
42003.dat     Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular with 2 Holes
32557.dat     Technic Pin Joiner Dual Perpendicular

None of those parts should really be referred to as "axle joiners" or "pin
joiners".  The only parts that should have those names are the ones that join
them end-to-end.  These parts are all what a hardware store would recognize as a
saddle joint, and I always think of them pictorally, at least for the three
3-long versions (+=o, +o+, and +oo, specifically).
