mingw-w64-{i686,x86_64}-toolchain wouldn't be appropriate, I think
cross is redundant too, also there's no indication of the OS. Standard
GNU-y triplets should be used IMHO, so:
${MINGW_PACKAGE_PREFIX}-arm-linux-gnu-toolchain would be a good (if
very long) package name, maybe we could shorten -toolchain to -tc (or
-xtc if you really like cross to be in there somewhere?)
I'm more interested in how you're planning to build them. I'm somewhat
involved in crosstool-ng, and was planning to add a load of cross
compilers to MSYS2/MinGW-w64 packages when MSYS2 itself is working
well enough .. This would include cross compilers targeting Linux (arm
and intel) and Darwin (arm and intel).
