It is often pronounced "kosh", but in German the "ch" would sound like the "ch" in Scottish "loch".
Further information: The name is German in origin and is actually correctly pronounced with a hard h. The final phoneme of 'ch' should not be pronounced as a ck, nor is it a 'soft' h. It is a unique and distinct hard hsound.
