Lifestate's Name in RoM
So the official term is Spellcasters. I suppose that solves the issue of gender terms. Frankly, I think mages (also gender-neutral) is faster to type and means the same thing but whatever. What do you...

Maybe “magicians” sounds too much like a performer or illusionist while mages is a more uncommon, or fantasy term? I think they went for a fairly neutral, umbrella term. I don’t care what they are called; I am just glad we’re getting them in whatever form.
Well, in some lore a Mage is more of a "Grand Title" given to a Spell caster who has mastered magic.
I often compare a Mage to a Bishop of the Church.
My Sorcerer is going to several titles, But his style is Lord Kaegan Castor Archmage of Briarheart (Glimmerbrook will be playing the part of Briarheart)
In my story, Kaegan isn't the only Mage in the Kingdom, But he is the most powerful, beloved, and well experienced in all magic, and so he was made the head of a Council of Magic. And the Council enforces the laws of magic under the rule of King Henry of Briarheart, and handles Protection against both Magic and Mortal from those who seek to destroy the peace and balance they have established.

"Witch" is gender neutral.
Spellcaster is better because it covers different types of magic users. Quite a few of us expressed the need to not be confined to only Witches.
Now, if we are able to create those different types has yet to be seen. I'm still not sure if I will be able to create a Native American Shaman. The magic may be too commercialized. Depending on exactly how magic ability is increased, it may be too odd to follow a storyline if we have to go into the Realm very often.
Precisely.
Um... Why would we have to go into the Realm of Magic?
