Forgot apple ID and password

Hi, I have an iPad mini that was purchased some years ago but when trying to open it, it says that enter the apple ID that was used to set up this iPad. Since it's brand new, the apple ID must have been set by a family member of mine. The apple ID starts with k and is a GMAIL ID. As I can't remember the ID as well as the password, I'd like to know the complete name of that email ID so that I can reset it.


Regards,

iPad mini Wi-Fi
