How to Name Your Bunny
Download Article
1
Think of your bunny’s traits to pick the perfect name. Before naming your bunny, spend time with them to observe their behavior and physical traits. Are they quiet, energetic, sweet, or mischievous? Do they have a unique coat, or are they larger or smaller in size? You can get inspiration from these characteristics to come up with a cute and unique name for your bunny.
- For example, if you have a larger bunny who loves munching on carrots, Captain Carrots might work. If you have a super sweet white bunny, Angel could be the right choice.
2
Try to choose a short name that ends with a vowel. Single or double syllable names that end in a vowel can be easier for your bunny to understand, since words ending with a vowel tend to change the tone of your voice. This helps your rabbit identify their name out of the other words you use.[3]
- If you want to name your bunny a longer name, you can always give them a shorter nickname. For example, you could shorten the name Hare E. Potter to Harry.
3
Test out different names to see which one feels right. In the early stages, feel free to try out a different name every day to see which one suits them best. Your bunny might respond better to a certain name, which can make it easier for you to train them![4]
- Once your adult bunny knows their name, avoid changing it. Doing so can be super confusing for them and they may not respond to you as well.
