Kippahs, also known as yarmulkes, are traditionally worn by Jewish men and have origins that trace back to at least the 2nd century CE, as indicated by historical texts and archaeological findings. The practice of wearing a head covering is believed to have evolved as a sign of reverence and humility before God. While the specific customs and styles have varied over time, the kippah has become a significant symbol of Jewish identity and observance.

Is it a disrespect for christians to wear kippahs?

The answer to this question depends on why a Christian wants to wear a kippah. In the Jewish tradition, Kippahs are worn as a show of respect for God. Christians have different ways of showing respect for God as well. So no, it's not disrespectful for Christians to wear kippahs if they are in a Jewish ceremony or environment. But it may be best to ask the person in charge if it's ok.
