The word "warlock" was a word conceived and used by the Christian church meaning oath breaker or traitor. It was used to describe anyone, male or female, who by their (the Church's) terms had "broken faith or their oath with God (the Christian one)."
The word eventually became common usage to describe a male practitioner of magic (a male witch). This resulted in it's being picked up by fiction writers of books, comics, movies and on-line games.
As I understand it there is also a band called Warlock.
Most of the pagans I know consider this to be one of the more derogatory terms used against us, and it is still common usage by people who do not know, understand or in some cases care about the insult they are speaking.
