I’m not sure about kike, but I do know the theories on the origin of ‘nigger’. The most widely accepted theory is that the word is derived from the Latin word ‘niger’, for the color black. But many of the actual origins for racial slurs aren’t really known for sure. Since they are slang, they aren’t really ‘recorded’ completely in history.
