The name KOKESHI is rather new, since 1940.
「こけし」の真実‐「子消し→こけし」は真実 / 平井敏雄 Hirai Toshio
The word, ko-keshi (ko o kesu 子を消す), can be loosely translated as "extinguished child" or "a child wiped out.
There is still an ongoing discussion about this naming.

Manga Nihon Mukashibanashi with kokeshi
The Brothers Taro, Jiro and Saburo 太郎、二郎、三郎
Once upon a time
there lived three brothers. Their parents were well off and they did not have to help with the daily work and could play around in the woods and the river, even as they got older.
One day their father called them and gave them a lecture and asked them to get out for three years to learn something.
Their mother agreed with this plan and called them, one by one. She asked Taro, the eldest, to become the best leader of the samurai in Japan. Jiro, the second son should become the best merchant of Japan . Next was the turn of Saburo, the third son. But he only mumbled:
"Oh well, I will become the best of something in Japan, for sure!"
The next day the three brothers left home. They walked for a while together until the road foked into three and they had to separate. Taro took the middle road, Jiro went to the right and Saburo turned left. They promised to meet here again after three years.
The four seasons came and went and in no time the three years had passed.
On the middle road appeared the proud Samurai Taro with a lot of retainers.
On the road to the right appeared Jiro, now a rich merchant with a lot of servants.
Saburo appeared along the road to the left, just as he had left three years ago, all alone.
When they reached home, their father was very happy with the fortune of Taro and Jiro.
Then he turned to Saburo, who said:
"I became the best thief of Japan". 俺は、日本一の泥棒になった。
Father said this was not a joking matter and got angry, but Saburo said he had stolen the precious metal incense burner of his father from the storehouse in the compound.
Father got really angry now, threw Saburo out of the gate and locked it most carefully.
To tell the truth, Saburo has just been lying about becoming a thief.
He had stayed with an old grandmother in the mountains and helped her. And the grateful grandma had given him a magic kokeshi 木ぼっこ（こけし人形） as a present when he departed.
Coming home he threw this doll into the compound of his father, where it went straight to the storehouse, took the metal incense burner and handed it to Saburo.
After that was cleared, the three brothers lived and prospered together.
The kokeshi of Saburo became the special treasure of the family and was kept really well to our day.
