** Fantasia? Fantastica? Depends which version you're reading (or watching). "Fantasia" is a more direct equivalent of the German original (''Phantásien''), but the standard English translation of the novel uses "Fantastica", possibly to avoid confusion with any of the several things already called ''Fantasia'' in English, like [[WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}} Walt Disney's movie]].
** The name of the Luckdragon. The German name is "Fuchur", derived from the Japanese word "fukuryu" (meaning "Lucky Dragon"). Due to the magic that is English pronunciation the resulting name would be more fit for an unintentional ClusterFBomb. The original name is roughly pronounced [[TheUnpronouncable "/foo/-throaty German/Scottish 'ch'- oor"]] in German.

Not inherently. Fantastica is shown to be home to many tribes and nations that could produce magic-users, most of which look essentially like humans. Since the witches and sorceresses are not described in detail, there isn't enough information to conclude that they are a Mage Species instead of mages from other species, which makes this speculation and thus not admissible as an example.
