Logotype has TYPE.
Logo > just the graphic symbol.

logo: symbol, icon, sign
logotype: arranged typeface

SONY is a logotype

I think you're confused;
Logo is an abbreviation of Logotype, think SWOOSH.
Wordmark is what is sounds like, think NIKE.- nodoesnotexist

- The swoosh may nowadays be referred to as an icon. But that's a more recent delineation.********

wordmark is when it's only type- no logo to accompany it.
