› FORUM › THE LOUNGE › Ready…set…go!! Name this bunny!
Well, there is officially no more room at the inn. Always, aiming to make my hubby happy, I went back to the shelter today. I was checking to see if they had the bunny HE fell in love with a couple weeks ago when we got Annie and Potus. They did! Now we have her lol. But he’s stuck on a name. So he said he’d let you guys help us out!
Oddly enough, she looks like Biscuit on steroids lol. Her current name is Aphrodite. Its a mouthful, I think. And yes. I think I have lost my mind. She will be living in our kitchen, as its large and we don’t have much for the kitchen. That’s why I asked about cat food (another post). And here she is!


OMG she’s HUGE!!! SOOOOO jealous! Ha ha ha…. Oh, by the way – CONGRATULATIONS! Your both so lucky!
Did you say your after a name??? Ha ha ha ha! Trust me to be the first to reply….. DOH! Lol!
For some reason I’ve had ‘Wally’ on my mind… (do yourself a favour and don’t bother asking why??? Lol!), but I doubt you wouldn’t want to call your beautiful new girl Wally??? That’s something I’d do….. he he he he he!
Edit to ADD – you could always do the Aussie thing and call her ‘Blue’! We call anything red/ginger ‘BLUE’! Again, don’t ask why…![]()
And if your blue, like a blue cattle dog for example – it gets called RED! ![]()
Yep – BLUE! That’s ‘officially’ my choice. ![]()
Well, in all fairness, we have a girl Bruno lol
True! Soooo….. is Wally a contender??? LOL!!!
Well congrats again on a new bunny. I thought it was Biscuit at first too. I don’t know why but the name Freya came to mind when I look at her.
She’s a big girl! Not suggesting this as a name (its a mouthful too) but she looks like a caramel cream candy — I didn’t say anything to him but showed hubby the pic and he said the same thing! Maybe Carrie. (Don’t go there AH!!!)
Edit — nothing wrong with the name BM, but AH will say you can’t call her that because it’s my tv name.
Speaking of Wally, we had the sweetest female dog named Walter when I was growing up. We tried to change her name but she would only answer to Walter (although my grandfather insisted on calling her Tinkerbelle).
I like Carrie. Although I had a hamster named Carrie (short for Caramel) when I was a kid, so I’m probably being biased. LOL
Caremel . . . Karma! (fate — your hubby fell in love with her, you got two other bunnies, went back and got her!)
Hmmm, I kinda like Caramel. ![]()
Well JR, if BM calls her Carrie – whose gonna name their bunny Debra after my TV character???
If you decide on Carrie for her name BM, you’ll have to go out and get another bunny and call it Debra! ![]()
On second thought, I think you should name the bunny Andi!
Is the bunny cheeky???
Cheeky, hmmmm. Maybe you should rename Annie and call her Andi!
Such a pretty marmalade girl.
You could name her Lola; after all “whatever Lola wants, Lola gets.” And she got her humans.
Congrats on the new addition!
Mmmmmm………
LOL JR!
Haha, if we named her Andi I would always be calling her AH lol ![]()
So far she is not cheeky…..she’s very chill.
She looks like a cappuccino! Or some sort of marbled rock…
Here’s what comes to my mind:
– Leona
– Mia
– Sara
– Kaja (pronounced “Kaya”)
– Ainsley
– Rowena
NO bunny deserves being called AH after a naughty bunny and an even worse cheeky owner! Ha ha ha…..
I’d stick with Freya, Caramel (Carrie) or Lola – such beautiful names for a BEAUTIFUL girl!
How excited you and your hubby must be – new babies ‘every where’! Sigh……
Hubby said last night maybe something Halloween-ish or fall-ish, since we got her in October. I immediately thought of pumpkin! But he said that was too normal lol
You could always name her October? That’s a gorgeous name.
You could also name her:
-Saturday
-Pumpkin Spice
-Winter Spices
-Cheers (for Holiday cheers)
-Anabelle
-Symphony
-Sunset
-Lilian
-Autumn
-Autumn Drizzle
Edit: No have to think more. Henrietta?
So pretty! Congrats again BM & Hubby. So was it a surprise for your husband or did he know you were going back for her?
I had thought “Fall” theme names would be good too.
-Cassia: instead of cinnamon
-Autumn: as already mentioned.
-Amber or Sienna: after fall colours.
-Mulcher: just kidding!
-Shizuha Aki: Goddess of Autumn ( if you like anime).
-Aki or Akiko:
http://nameberry.com/blog/autumn-names-from-poppy-to-persephone
Other names:
-Sundae: like caramel sundae
-Butterscotch
-Kumara: NZ word for orange sweet potato but common in Oz too.
-Libby: after the Libby’s brand pumpkin products. (I had to google!)
-Ginny: from Ginger or Harry Potter
-Deirdre: she reminds me of a deer with those dappled white spots.
-Dapple ?
I’m outta ideas now.
I kinda like Ginger
Yeah, Ginger is cute.
(I still vote on October though.
)
Freyja
Butternut. Like butter nut pumpkin. They are autumnal and somewhat the same color. And you can say ” You butter nut, Butternut” when she wants to chew cables, carpet, wall-paper etc.
She’s very pretty! Forgot to say that.
Oh I like that! Another vote for Butternut!
LOL bam! That’s awesome. Meh. I like all these names. He’s such a stick in the mud sometimes. ![]()
There’s always C.C., for Candy Corn.
Or if he’s a big sci-fi fan he could go with LeeLoo (Fifth Element)
Aww, Butternut is kinda cute.
I would call my kitty Butters and Butterball. I didn’t like his real name (Buddy), but he came with it and he responded to it so it was difficult to change.
You know, if you find a name you like, then just start calling her that and see if it sticks. My husband did that to me numerous times. He liked a name, so he just starting calling said pet that name and it would eventually stick. It didn’t matter if I was undecided or didn’t really like the name. LOL
LOL bam! We called Henry Henrietta after he was neutered! Ha ha ha….
Naughty us making fun of him…. Lol!
I still vote for Blue! If your red or ginger, you get called Blue!
Lol….
So I decided this morning on Butternut (thanks bam!) And have been calling her Nutterbuns all day. I even texted my hubby on my way to church this morning that I voted for Butternut lol. He’s not impressed. Especially when I said oh! We could call her butnut for short! Lol So he and I may have a Tucker/Wuck Wucks vs. Manny type war going on over her name soon! Lol
Good luck with that BM! ![]()
OH BM!
I am not on for a few days and you get another? Silly, silly BM! CONGRATS! Butternut is adorable!
If there is a war, I will stay firmly on the correct side. No fence-sitting for me! (Roberta????)
yer Roberta!
Lol!
So my husband wants to name her Nine and I want Butternut. So I said well, we can call her Butternine! Lol
Nine???? Is she number nine?
Nine? What kind of a name is that? Where did that come from?
I know what team I’m on.
GO TEAM BUTTERNUT!
LBJ & JR- she is number nine!(eek) so now he’s thinking along those lines. He suggested Novem which is nine in either Italian or Latin. Which is an ok name, but I’m sold on Butternut lol
I’m good with Butternut, but not so much with Nine. She’s too pretty to be called Nine. Tell the hubby that the WE have decided on Butternut!
I agree with JackRabbit, she’s much too pretty to be Nine. Plus, she has the right coloring to be a Butternut. PLUS, Butternut sounds adorable (Nine does not sound adorable). The BB has decided. He has no say anymore!!
Lol so we’re sitting there watching TV last night and he looks at her and says…”Huh, you really ARE a Butternut!” Lol yay we win!
YAY! Go team Butternut!
I would of course feel immensely honored if I’d helped name this bunny. I hope we’ll get to see more pics and hear more of her =)
My internet has been wobbly these last few days, so I’ve fallen behind on everything BB.
