Since it seems that all npcs and mobs show some identifying name over their heads it seems incorrect that the Mage of Mystery in Superstition Canyon doesn't. Even when I toggle the names with N there is never any identifying name over the mages head. I can determine his name by shift clicking to target him. I can see his name in the chat box when he does some idle chat without entering a chat mode with me. But, I think there should be a name over his head like all of the other npcs.

 

Also, the town crier in brittany alleys doesnt show a name over her head

@Sannio As you can see in the movie clip, I toggled N on and off several times to verify that it was not the issue. The mage of mystery remains nameless over his avatar.
And, as you can see in the text above, I already said I tried to make his name show by using the N key.

@Sannio I went back into QA to verify the bug. She (Brittany Alleys Town Crier) still doesnt have a name over her head in patch 778.

I went back to Superstition to verify the Mage of Mystery mystery. This time, I walked about a bit verifying that the squirrel, squirrel corpse and arctic wolves all were displaying a name over their head. This verifys that I had toggled the N key to the correct toggle.

Then I viewed the Mage of Mystery. He had no name over his head. But, when I tried to shift click on him to bring him up as a soft target, the game instead took me into conversation mode for some reason. I exited the conversation mode and voila!! The Mage of Mystery now has a name over his head.

Perhaps this new information will assist your programmers in fixing this bug.

Here is a short video clip showing what I have described:
