...A character can't have a birthday on September 11th? My little brother was born on that day. Granted, it was about...two years before the attack on the Twin Towers, but still. We don't let what happened in 2001 taint his special day.
And if you didn't tell anyone the reason you gave your character that birthday? Personally, I don't see a problem, but that could just be because it's my brother's birthday, so I view the day in two separate lights and keep them distinct; a tragedy and a celebration, and I make sure I observe both the memorial ceremonies and my little brother's party.
Again, though, it still boils down to your call and what you're comfortable with.
(...I hope I don't sound like some insensitive, horrible person.)
