Runa... middle word names?

I’m playing around with the name [name_f]Runa[/name_f] and kind of loving it as a contender for if we have a baby girl in [name_u]December[/name_u]. What middle name would you pair it with? Preferably, I would like a word name or very nature oriented name and don’t mind adventurous!

I love [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] or [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u] in theory, but our surname starts with an R (sounds like Romero) and it makes it feel too R heavy and clunky.

Thoughts on:
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Snow[/name_u]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Nightingale[/name_u]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Lake[/name_u]

[name_f]Runa[/name_f] is lovely! [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is a bit of a tongue twister and I do really like [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Snow[/name_u]. Suggesting [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] (so-LAY, meaning sun).

Okay I love runa colette or runa nicolette as well, although random-

[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Wisteria[/name_f]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Solstice[/name_u]

I think [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f] would be really cute!
Seconding [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Gem[/name_f] and [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Ocean[/name_u]! Oh and also [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Fable[/name_u]!
If you like [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u], how about [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Lark[/name_u]? Oops, already been mentioned.
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Summer[/name_f]
[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Nightingale[/name_u] is gorgeous! I love how the meanings sound together, moon and night singer - very cool!!

[name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Snow[/name_u] is perfect for a winter baby, but [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Nightingale[/name_u] is stunning!

I thought [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] immediately when I saw the thread title but the R might run into your surname a little.

What about a compound [name_f]Lily[/name_f] name? I think those found great with short, strong firsts like [name_f]Runa[/name_f]. Maybe [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Daylily[/name_f], [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Waterlily[/name_f], [name_f]Runa[/name_f] Tigerlily…

I absolutely love [name_f]Runa[/name_f] and the middles you are thinking of. [name_f]My[/name_f] personal favourites are [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u] and [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Nightingale[/name_u] but they’re all lovely.

@lelemercury I love [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Lark[/name_u]! Putting this on the list. Now I am fantasizing about twins [name_f]Veda[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Lark[/name_u] <3

@OliveShoot RUNA EVERGREEN! This is exactly what I was looking for. It sounds so unusual yet somehow comforting and familiar. I never would have thought of that. I love this one and I think my husband does too.

@Violet8181 So many good combos. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband loves [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Foxglove[/name_u]! [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Poet[/name_u] is stunning too

@oliviasc [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f] and [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] <3

@Greyblue I really like [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Saffron[/name_f] and I also like the sound of [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Sapphire[/name_f], although that one would not sound great with our surname. Someone should use that please though!

@katinka YES YES please to [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Tigerlily[/name_f]. This is so fierce and yet softened by lily. I love it.

I’m going to need to figure out how to narrow these down… they are all so good. Thanks everyone!

[name_m]Just[/name_m] came to say that [name_f]Runa[/name_f] + any strong L containing name wouldn’t work as well. [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_u]Lark[/name_u] might sound OK, [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f] or [name_f]Runa[/name_f] [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] are both tongue twisters as well.
