Palindromes aren't classified according to meaning. They are words that read the same backwards and forwards and as such, have the same meaning both ways.

Words that are spelled the same with different meanings are homographs.

Palindrome words that have a different meaning when read backward are called heteropalindromes or semordnilaps. An example of a heteropalindrome is the word "stressed," which spells "desserts" backward.
