Yep, thats what I was refering to :)
Kyriaki is the Greek word for Sunday where I live, but its also a rather... common name. Still, it is Sunday, and to me it sounds awkward.
Thats why I said I wouldn't want to name my child Kyriaki :)
(plus, regardless of its meaning and what not, I don't really like it as a name in itself)
:D
Hope that clarified :)!
PS: Oh, another Greek on the boards! I didn't know!
So where about do you live? (Y'never know, we could be neighbors :P)

I'm from the United States. I figured most people here were from English-speaking countries, like the US, the UK, Australia, etc. No offense to people who aren't.

I live in Athens!
