Comments and insights on the name Bunnie: | Edit

I hated the name when I was growing up. I was teased constantly. Now I like it. It's unusual and a good way to break the ice in conversation. People want to know if it's my real name (it is) and how I got it (my dad thought I looked like a cute bunny rabbit). I get called Bonnie a lot because people think they misheard me or my name was misspelled.

Personal experiences with the name Bunnie: | Edit

As I said, somewhat difficult to grow up with. Also has kind of a "bimbo" vibe to it, so people underestimate me at times.
