Does anybody know if the FTT window cos2n(t) have an official name. I call
it the Moriat window because one of my frinds started a discussion abot this
window.

It's called the "Von Hann" window:

This friend's name is Moriat? He must be pretty old to claim precedence
over Julius von Hann. Check out

Yes, but only for n= 1 (what I mean but cannot type is that the exponent of
cos is 2n

Ok, a whole window family defined by

w_n(t) = (0.5 - 0.5 Cos(t) )^n, 0 <= t <= 2 Pi

As you said, for n=1 this is the von Hann window. For n=2 you have

w_2(t) = 0.375 - 0.5 Cos(t) + 0.125 Cos(2 t)

this is close, but not equal to the Blackman window. For n=3

w_3(t) = 0.3125 - 0.46875 Cos(t) + 0.1875 Cos(2 t) - 0.03125 Cos(3 t)

which is not close to any window with a name. This means it is not
optimal in any sense (same for n=2). Look at the window link in
wikipedia to see the optimal third order cosine windows. Another good
link:

A H Nuttall:
"Some Windows with Very Good Sidelobe Behavior"
IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. Vol.
ASSP-29 (February 1981).
