Original term came from the motion picture, Castaway, in which a man gets stranded on a desert island. *Spoilers* His only 'friend' on the island is a volleyball he has named Wilson (after the brand). After being stuck for several years he finally escapes the island, but loses Wilson in the middle of the ocean.
In the MMO gaming community, the term is used to describe someone that runs at the first sign of trouble. It can be used to describe the person or used to describe the action of running away.
