I may be a bit late to the party, but I just realised that you actually create named functions when using the class keyword.

Example:

class myFunction
  # The functions actual code is wrapped in the constructor method
  constructor: ->
    console.log 'something'

console.log myFunction # -> function AppComponent() { ... }
myFunction() # -> 'something'

Coffeescript doesn't support the latter (named functions), but the former can be achieved with 

a = (param1) ->
    console.log param1
