1: τίτλος

(Strong's #5102 — Noun Masculine — titlos — tit'-los )

from Latin titulus, is used of the inscription above the Cross of Christ, John 19:19,20 . See SUPERSCRIPTION.

2: κεραία

(Strong's #2762 — Noun Feminine — keraia | kerea — ker-ah'-yah )

"a little horn" (keras, "a horn"), was used to denote the small stroke distinguishing one Hebrew letter from another. The rabbis attached great importance to these; hence the significance of the Lord's statements in Matthew 5:18; Luke 16:17 , charging the Pharisees with hypocrisy, because, while professing the most scrupulous reverence to the Law, they violated its spirit. Grammarians used the word to denote the accents in Greek words.
