Larunda Name meanings & History

The name Larunda means "thief" or "murmurer" in Roman mythology. She was a nymph who could not keep a secret and was punished by having her tongue torn out. Possibly connected to Greek λαλέω (laleo) meaning "to talk, to chatter", or the Latin term Lares referring to minor guardian gods. In Roman mythology Larunda or Lara was a water nymph who was overly talkative. She revealed to Juno that her husband Jupiter was having an affair with Juturna, so Jupiter had Larunda's tongue removed. By the god Mercury she had two children, who were Lares. The name Larunda is commonly used in literature and mythology, but is not typically used as a given name for children.
