Larun is Basque in Origin.

Larun is a rare given name with layered origins. In the Basque-speaking region, Larrun is the native name of the Pyrenean peak known in French as La Rhune; as a toponym turned personal name, Larun/Larrun is often linked to Basque larre “pasture, meadow,” with a place suffix -un, yielding an earthy sense of “from the pastures” or “of the slopes,” though the exact etymology remains debated.

Outside Basque country, Larun surfaces as a modern, largely unisex choice in Europe and North America from the late 20th century onward. It is occasionally treated as a creative spelling near Laron (an American name formed from Larry + Ron) or as a cross-cultural blend echoing Scandinavian Lars and Indian Arun “reddish, dawn.” Variants and related forms include Larrun, Larune, Rhune, and Laron; short forms Lar or Rune.
