Choosing rabbit names is no different from choosing other pet names.

It has to be just right.

You are always safe with names that relate to the way your bunny looks, like Fluffy or Twitcher, but why not try something a little different?

To inspire you we have listed names from rabbits used in literature.

Don't miss the lists of rabbit names from film and TV, and the lists of popular bunny rabbit names.
