lăun
See also: laun
Romanian
Etymology
Probably linked to the verb la. Possibly from Vulgar Latin root *lavōnem (“washhouse”), from Latin lavō or with the creative suffix -un. Another less likely theory suggets Latin leōnem, from leō (see leu). [1] See also Lăunele, the name of a river in Oltenia, Romania.
