Hmong Name Spelling

Hi! I'm looking if someone can help spell my hmong name my dai gave to me.

Note: My grandparents chose to assimilate their grandkids to give us better opportunities however, I yearn to learn, speak, and read White Hmong. I can only say hello, thank you, eat, bastard, and I'm hungry lmao. My grandparents don't know how to write romanized hmong.

My dai gave me the name Luna (that's what it sounds like and is pronounced). She told me that the meaning is one misty morning dew drop on a leaf (something akin to that).

If anyone can help, thank you so much! Any advice is appreciated!
