LOL, and why is that? I didn't know it was a known hated name...I have a couple friends that named their kiddo Cohen and I thought it was fairly cute. 

[dreadpiratebuttercup]

There is a quite a bit of controversy surrounding it, and it could potentially be offensive to an entire group of people. Google Cohen name controversy.

I think it's rather selfish to give your child a name that many people may find offensive or disrespectful.
