Meaning & Story
An English word name meaning a practitioner of dark magic — a name chosen for a pet with a mysterious, slightly ominous, dramatically cool personality.
Warlock is a name that makes a statement. It is dark, dramatic, and immediately creates a mental image of a black cat with glowing eyes or a large, imposing dog with a gaze that seems to see right through you. In English, a warlock is traditionally a male practitioner of dark magic, and as a pet name it celebrates that mysterious, otherworldly quality that some animals undeniably possess. Pets named Warlock tend to be the ones who watch you from across the room with unsettling focus, or who appear silently in doorways at 3am. We love the commitment to the aesthetic.
