    And also how the actual, real paladins from history never had spellcasting ability.
    People do realize the names come from things that really existed, right?

    Yes, but magic is kinda...not real. I am sure they would have used it if they could.

    Aren't Knight and Paladin more or less the same thing in this series?

    true but still Difference Between Paladin and Knight in any games Paladin more unending evil/undead approaches Knight more Chivalry side, It Come down to code of honor Difference.
    FF11 was true paladin FF14 more like Knight non Spell user I hardly use Cure or Protect only flash use MP and maybe sometime I use Stoneskin.
    Combat mechanics are completely different FF11 you had to use Cure to get hate aggro Cure II ,Cure III FF14 shield lob combo combo combo to get hate aggro.

    In FF11 and FF14 the Japanese name for Paladin was Knight. Paladin was just the English translation but if you look at the JP text they call them both Knight.

    The terminology really doesn't matter that much. As it is, FFXI Paladin seemed to draw from FF1's Knight and Cecil Harvey as a Paladin, and extended the idea from there. This game's Paladi, by contrast, appears to be a more of a modern take on FF5's Knight job.
