TrumpetofTheSwan wrote: You could also call her a sorceress, which means the same thing. The labeling all seems a little arbitrary to me. She's a female magic wielder. So is Regina, and so was Cora. But none of them called themselves witches, and others didn't call them that ,either. Zelena, on the other hand, wholly embraced the label of witch. Technically, Regina referred to herself as a witch when she talked to BW, "That's what happens when you mess with a witch, Witch!" Usually, sorceress tend to be those with themselves being a "source" or some spiritual source, but most people tend to use these things interchangably. (I.E. Glinda is a Good Witch, but also a Sorceress)

They are all magic practioners at the end of the day and that is the bets in-show description of what anyone of them is.
