Kagan Meaning
From a Turkish title meaning "king, ruler", ultimately of Mongolian origin. The title is usually translated into English as Khan. Kagan is derived from the Hebrew name "Kohen", which means "priest". In the 18th and 19th centuries many Jews who belonged to the priestly class changed their names to "Kogan or Cagan" to escape serving in the army.
