The pointy hat commonly associated with witches is known as a witch hat. **It is a long, conical hat that tapers at the top and often has a wide brim.** This hat has become a recognizable symbol of witches in popular culture and is often depicted in movies, TV shows, and literature. It is commonly depicted as being black in color and is often decorated with various embellishments such as ribbons, feathers, or buckles. The origins of the witch hat can be traced back to the early modern period, where it was commonly worn by women accused of witchcraft during the witch-hunting era. However, its association with witches is mainly based on folklore and mythical depictions rather than historical accuracy.

Why do fantasy writers depict pointy hats as the headgear of choice for Witches and Wizards?
Oh no, it's just that they're terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing them in the future.

As I said in my answer, although precursors exist, my guess is that the "Sorcerer's Apprentice" segment from the 1940 Disney movie Fantasia really cemented this image of a wizard's hat in the public imagination.
