First Time Bun Mom!

[Rachel]

Hi there!! I’m, as the title says, the first time mommy to a lop bunny, or I will be tonight. I’m taking in a seven month old lop mix from someone who is rehoming him because they don’t have the time to play with him anymore. I’m really looking forward to meet him but have to wait until they get off of work for them to bring him over. I can’t wait! Right now they call him Rabbert Klein but my girlfriend really doesn’t like the name (not a huge fan myself, apparently it’s from Archer which I don’t watch) so we’ll probably rename him. I kind of want to call him Doppler because of his bands (grey on white) but we’ll see. When we meet him the perfect name might present itself. I’m super excited to be here! Forums are great places to learn and one of the only ways to connect to other lovers of the “unusual” animals lol.

Hello and welcome to Binky Bunny! There is a lot of good information on this site, on all the basics of rabbit care. Click on BUNNY INFO at the top left of the page. Don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have. We like to help our fellow bunny parents.

Before adopting my rabbits, I have had an idea of what I might name them, but I usually live with them for a couple of days, then the right name comes about. You can ask for ideas with names on here.

Thank you! I’ve looked through the bunny info stuff. Super helpful!! The pictures I’d had of him did not rep accurately represent his colors he’s way cuter in person! We actually could use some help naming, we were going to call him Pinto but it just didn’t suit him.

Welcome to the forums! We’d love to help you with names! What types of names do you like? Historic, from favorite tv-shows, litterary, names of flowers or plants or candy etc? 

Here’s ha tutorial on how to upload pics to your posts: pictorial

Right now most of my name ideas are from books I like (a lot of my suggestions are from Discworld and I think I like Leonard of Quirm the best but we’ll see what my girlfriend says, though I also like Twoflower). Any suggestions based on his appearance would be appreciated but all I have are crappy pictures that the person I adopted him from sent me, I was stunned when I saw him in person since he was so much prettier than I thought he was going to be. I’m hoping to take lots of pictures today since I’ll be setting up his new cage (xlarge dog crate that I’ll line with fleece and try to make a makeshift level for).

Here’s the only picture I have of him right now (assuming I did this right and it uploads)
