Kochadaiyan literally means 'a King with matted hair' as Ko means a King and Chadaiyaan means one with matted hair. So kochadaiyaan would be king with matted hair.
And then, with that name, Kochadaiyaan is also used for Lord Shiva sometimes.
Also, Kochadaiyan Ranadhiran was a Pandya king in the seventh century, who is known to have fought and won many battles against the Cheras, Cholas and Marathas among others, and on whom Rajinikanth's next film is supposed to be based.
And yeah, the word is Kochadaiyaan. :)
