Larunda

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.
