Bunnie is English in Origin.
Bunnie is an English affectionate given name and nickname, a -ie diminutive spelling of Bunny. Bunny itself comes from Scots dialect bun, “rabbit,” carried into English as a term for a young rabbit and then a pet-name for a beloved child or sweetheart. As a result, Bunnie conveys the sense of “little rabbit,” with overtones of tenderness, playfulness, and springtime vitality. It is often bestowed independently, though some parents use it informally alongside a more formal name.
Use as a given name appears in Britain and North America from the late 19th century, with peak visibility in the mid-20th century; it has been used for girls far more than boys. Pop-culture imagery - children’s books, pin‑ups, and the Playboy “Bunny” - shaped its jaunty, coquettish vibe. Variants include Bunny (standard form), Bunni, and Bunnee; related pet-forms include Bun and Bun-Bun.
