The other morning my partner was called a 'kike' by some homeless person. Hes Italian and just kept walking, perhaps even laughing a bit. It did get me thinking, what is the origin of the word/name. I don't know if this is the answer, but its curious that some jews signed an 'o' on entry at Ellis island, rather than an 'x' I wonder if there is some symbolic meaning other than what is mentioned in the link below.
