Take a look at this picture from Fiddler on the Roof:

Is there a particular name for either of the caps seen here?
I’m actually interested in getting the style seen on the left.
A bit of Googling reveals that the hat on the left is often called a, guess what, fiddler’s cap. If you search “leather fiddler’s cap” you get a fair number of hits that look like the hat in the photo.
A similar style is the Greek fisherman’s cap, which I’ve seen sold in wool or leather varieties.
Not sure about the hat on the right.
Is this close enough?

If so, they’ll be happy to sell you one. I have bought from this company several times, and I trust them.
I would probably just call them peaked caps. Here’s a collection of photos of what in Swedish is called vegamössa, (Vega cap), named after this ship (or rather its captain, who wore one when returning home after the first voyage through the Northeast Passage).
