If you were given a rabbit, or you bought it yourself, then the first thing you need to do is give him a nickname. It is impossible to do without it, since he is now a full-fledged member of the family, which means he must also have a name. It is necessary to choose it based on your own desires; there are no limits that could limit your choice. But in order for your pet's name to be beautiful and fully characterize it, it is necessary to follow certain recommendations, which you will learn about below.
Nickname Selection Criteria
There are many criteria by which nicknames are most often chosen for their pets, but it is worth highlighting several of the most popular:
- fur color (color);
- rabbit size (dwarf or regular);
- character and habits;
- similarity with characters from fairy tales, cartoons;
- time of year or month of birth;
- individual external features (large ears, unique coat color, unusual tail shape).

Can a rabbit be called a human name?
If it so happened that the pet reminds you of an acquaintance or family with its appearance or temperament, then there is nothing wrong with choosing a human name with his nickname. Usually people take it calmly and without resentment.
Some may even be pleased that in this way you do not forget about this person, even if he is not next to you. And the next time, coming to visit you, he will certainly grab a treat for your pet.
How to teach a rabbit a nickname?
All rabbit owners want their pet to respond to their nickname.
To achieve this, you need a lot of time and patience, and also follow these rules:
- the name should be short and clear, then it will be easier for the pet to get used to it;
- Each time, taking the rabbit in his hands, clearly pronounce his name several times. First, he will get used to and remember your voice, and only after he will distinguish his name from other words;
- after each time your pet will respond to his name, he should receive encouragement in the form of your favorite food. So his nickname will be associated with food, and the animal will be more willing to respond to it.
Thus, the name of the rabbit is chosen one and for life. Therefore, before you name it, think carefully about your choice. It is better to observe the animal for several days to notice its peculiarity than to choose any name as soon as possible.Important! You can’t change the name of a rabbit during its life, since at an early age these animals have the best ability to remember. And changing the name can lead to the fact that he will not respond at all to any name.
Do not ask all your friends what you should call him, and shift the right of choice to them. The main thing is that you like the name, because it is your favorite.
