The small circle of fur underneath the forelock is called the whorl.
it's a medium stripe down the face from the forehead to above the nose... its too thick to be a stripe.
It can a number of things depending on the shape of the mark. If basicallt the whole face is white then it is called a white face. A blaze is a mark that covers most of the face not the yes and perhaps some of the nostrils. A stripe is a thin line down the centre of a horses face and can be slightly weirdly shaped sometimes. A star is on a horses forhead and a snip is on their nose.
Carmargue horses are sometimes referred to as "white horses" due to their distinctive white or gray coat color.
Yes, white does exist in horses. It is called 'Dominate White' and is a genetic mutation of the Kit gene. It causes a white coat, pink skin, and brown eyes. There are also other forms of white caused by the Sabino and Splashed white genes (this can also cause blue eyes instead of brown) . White is not to be confused with Grey where the horses coat turns white over a period of time. (They have grey skin under the hair.) Or Double Dilutes, such as cremello, perlino, and smoky cream. These horses have pink skin, blue eyes and an off-white or creamy colored coat.
Dark markings on a paint horse's head and ear are typically referred to as "bald face" if the white color extends beyond the eyes and covers most of the face, or "star" if it is a small white marking on the forehead, and "snip" if it is a small white marking on the nose.

A white mark on an animals' forehead is often called a blaze, strip, star, bald face, or a snip. These are called different names because of their shape or size.
There are a number of different marks that you can find on horses. The main face markings include a stripe ( a thin line running down the face, usually white), a blaze (a thick stripe running down the face, usually white), a star (a circle in the middle of the horses forehead, usually white) and a snip (a small white marking by the horses nose or mounth, usually white).
The mark if put on men's forehead is called Tilak and women's forehead is called Bindi.

Star A blaze generally the white down the middle of a horse's head; a star is generally smaller and more nearly to the top of the forehead. There's more white to a blaze than a star. (Cows have the same named markings.)

This depends on what you mean by 'white'. Grey horses can appear white, but they have grey skin underneath their hair. Grey is a genetic mutation and occurs in many breeds throughout the world. If you meant true dominant white or maximum white sabino, then this can occur in a few breeds. Maximum Sabino is a pinto type pattern that laid down no color pigment, just white hair. this occurs in any breed that can have sabino markings, such as the Thoroughbred, Paint, Quarter Horse and several others. Dominant white is a mutation on the KIT gene. This is a very rare color and occurs in a few breeds, such as Thoroughbreds. Albino is not a true horse color and does not really exist in horses.
