[B-Greek] KURIAKOS vs KURIOU?

Recently I looked up either 1 Cor 11:20 or Rev 1:10 and was surprised to
find out "Lord's" was actually KURIAKOS instead of just KURIOU. More
surprised to find it only occurred in those two places, and I don't think
ever in LXX.

I don't think the entry in BAGD was that extensive. I'm wondering if anyone
else can shed some light on the significance of KURIAKOS, and how it is
distinct from simple genitive use of KURIOS? What information about this
word might be relevant to understanding Paul's and John's selection over
KURIOU?

Thanks!
