Re: the name Kyrie?
Kyriakos and the female Kyriaki are quite popular names in Greece. If you wanna have some fun naming your second child, you could consider naming it some variation of Dominic (Dominique, Domenico, Domenica, etc). It means the same thing as Kyriakos/Kyriaki but in Latin.

Nice to meet you.
thank you for the suggestion, though I do not like the name Dominic.
But in modern Greek, is the K pronounced C then?
What would you say about the name Chloe? Doesn't it have a little lightness to it? It makes me think about the word cloud. The fact that I apply that word association might be negative on a child, no?
Like, it could turn her into a dreamy child or maybe i want a dreamy girl. What do you think?

Likewise :)
Kyriakos in Greek is pronounced "key - ree - AK -os".
I love the name Chloe, as it brings forth images of nature in its greenest. In Greek it means grass, and is pronounced "h-LOW-ee" with the "h" pronounced as in "home". And dont worry about a beautiful negatively affecting anyone's life :)
