Bunny — unisex name

What the Data Says About Bunny

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,819 babies named Bunny between 1917 and 2021, spanning 105 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Bunny currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2021. The name reached its historical peak in 1957, when 66 babies received it in a single year. Bunny is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 149 additional births since 1915.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Bunny performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 535 births during that ten-year window. Across the 12 decades of recorded activity, Bunny shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 74 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Texas and New York. In total, SSA state-level files list Bunny in 11 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Bunny in our reference dataset. These figures derive from SSA's annual national and state-level name files, which include any name appearing at least five times in a given year or state-year; names below that threshold are suppressed for privacy and therefore excluded from the totals shown here. The 1,819 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
