kokni
Explanation:
cock•ney I ['kaknij]; [o] n kokni, prost Londonac
cockney II a koknijski; the ~ dialect londonsko nareèje (narjeèje)
(Morton Benson Dictionary)

Mislim da je dovoljno "kokni" ili "londonski kokni" (može i u zagradi u originalu "cockney") - to je veæ opštepoznata reè i za one koji ne znaju engleski i da ne bi moralo da se u prevodu šire objašnjava.

agree  Tanja Abramovic (X): Ako je za bosansko ili hrvatsko trziste, onda se obicno ostavlja samo "cockney", posto transkripcija nije obavezna; ako je za srpsko trziste, pogotovo ako je pisano cirilicom, transkripcija je obavezna.
