Good Easter bunny names are soft and springlike, full of blossom, chocolate and daffodils, like Toffee Bun or Bramblebun, or funny, like Hare-iet of the Shoe Rack. Naming the bunny who hides the eggs, a fluffy chick for an Easter craft or a new cuddly lamb? This Easter Bunny Name Generator has cute, funny and classic names full of blossom, chocolate and daffodils, from Buttercup and Bramble to Sir Eggbert and Clover of Bluebell Wood.

Where the Easter Bunny comes from
The Easter Bunny began as a hare. German Lutherans told of the Osterhase, the Easter hare who brought eggs to children who'd been good, and German settlers took the tradition to America in the 1700s. Hares and rabbits had long been signs of spring, along with chicks, lambs and eggs, which is why the generator names all three.
- Bunnies get sweet names, garden names and puns on hare: Hare-old of the Chocolate Cupboard.
- Chicks get small, sunny names: Hatchy, Dandelion.
- Lambs get gentle meadow names: Agnes of the Long Meadow.
Choose Title for a name with a job attached, like Gary the Egg-Muddler, which suits the bunny who leaves clues on an egg hunt.
Using the names at Easter
- For an egg hunt, sign the clues from the bunny: "Love from Toffee Bun" is more fun than "the Easter Bunny".
- For crafts, give every paper chick or pom-pom bunny its own name tag.
- For a new cuddly toy or a real rabbit, pick a cute or classic name that will still suit it after Easter.
