Caiaphas — could it be closer to the Hebrew "kohen yafeh", meaning a beautiful priest?

You are likely aware of the importance of consonants in the Hebrew language. It is highly unlikely that the "n" from "kohen" would simply disappear. Ultimately, the translation of this name provided in the Glossary of Names in the Brussels Bible seems more appropriate: Caiaphas — investigator.
