Name my bunny game!

Hey guys and gals.. I have a new bunny, and I need to name him!   Somebody already referred to them as Gorby and Brezhnev which is hilarious!

Anyway.. there is a thread started in the forum, so pop over there and suggest some name for my cute little bunny!     He/She (still trying to figure that out!) already has a YouTube channel where I will be uploading videos shortly, so go ahead and subscribe to him!

Here is the link to the forum!

The winner will get a signed copy of my book and a pic.. and whatever else I can think of that is cool :-)

    else the chance to receive that excellent signed HotForWords book. :smile:
    When I first heard Fluffy-Fluff in the Nickname video,
    I thought that was a neat name.

    Thumper is another good name.

    Kind of scrawny, I was thinking how to {sauté} him.
    so I will name him “Delicious” bon appétit

    P.S.
    This comment is not a winner…lol

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/pedantickarl/ pedanticKarl

    Hey Barry, that is a funny one.

    For those who don’t get it, Barry is referring
    to the phrase “Hair of the dog” where
    Marina made a video of that phrase two years ago.

  • Greatest Potential

    :| this video is not for wimps

    It’s just that there’s a lot that has to be explained before you get to the sauté :arrow:

  • http://TorahSpace.ning.com onenesssaint

    I’d like to feel how soft and furry it is – then I want to check out your rabbit. You should name him/her Arnov which is the Hebrew word for “hare/bunny” You could “Americanize” the name by calling it “Arnie.” The name would go for male or female (whichever it turns out to be).

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/morisonodessa/ Sasha

    Hello dear Marina! I like your channel very much and i would like to ask you make investigation in combination of words {House Music}. It is classic of dance electronic music but nobody can answer my question why it is called so and i will appreciate if you can explain it’s etiology in your next videos. Thanks a lot. Sasha form Winnipeg

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/morisonodessa/ Sasha

    You can name it like Hertz

  • http://TropiCoolUniverse.com SurfinRI

    Hi, Marina:
    I have two names to suggest: NIBBLES, because that’s what rabbits do with carrots, or BUTTON, because he’s as cute as one. Take your pick!
    Love ya!
    JJ

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    I don’t know if anyone else noticed but I think he looks like a panda.
    So I would have to go with “Pan”.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_(god)
    I scanned the wiki a little and it says… “Pan is famous for his sexual powers”
    …so are wabbits — Yep :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    hmmm… the winner gets a book and a pic?
    That would also solve this problem…
    http://www.hotforwords.com/2010/05/26/ras-syndrome/#comment-176717

    I always have a copy of this book…
    http://www.amazon.com/Times-Dictionary-Misunderstood-Misused-Mispronounced/dp/1579120601
    and read it for fun.
    Get that book @marina it will be your all-time favorite.

    p.s. “Three-peat” should have been spelled like that.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/pedantickarl/ pedanticKarl

    While Marina is determining the sex of the rabbit,
    I wasn’t aware until now that a male rabbit is
    known as a buck and a female is a doe.
    Let us know which one it is Marina.

    Chester is a winner or MARMADUKE—Orvile Orlova :razz: Joe Buck

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/pedantickarl/ pedanticKarl

    How about naming him / her Lucky as in that
    is one lucky rabbit’s foot you got there.
    Besides, that rabbit is lucky to have a mom like HotForRabbits. :smile:

    Another name could be Jack or Jackie as in Jackalope.

    (Exclude me from winning.)

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/pedantickarl/ pedanticKarl

    It looks like a male rabbit besides being
    known as a buck is also known as a jack and a
    female rabbit is known as a doe or jill.

  • iluv2cutfarts

    I didn’t see any nuts on that thar wabbit! LOL!

    Karl – you must have x-rated Bunny vision or something!

    :lol:

    How about Cassidy, you know like as in hop along or maybe Bandit because that little bunny has stolen your affection. ;-)
    :mrgreen: ….or how about something really obscure like naming him after Dennis Hopper. RIP :sad:
    One of the last of the wild ones.♫
    :lol: Ben, One Suave Fucker :cool:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    It is a buck, isn’t it?

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    When I noticed the panda thing I was trying to combine panda and rabbit and thought of Pandit (like your bandit).
    Wow… Dennis Hopper RIP just happened… and a hopper is a rabbit, I’m not sure if you know you came up with that?

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    yeah, I was thinking that. it just happen to be a coincidence. What’s a trip is people I get into whether it’s music or the Hollywood industry are really starting to drop off.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    Yep, that must be true.
    I did hear about Gary’s passing on Friday.
    I just checked the forum and looks like somebody already suggested Dennis Hopper….oh well.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    They call that a three-peat, — for pete’s sake.
    @impaler112 Thanks…
    I forgot to use Yep in this thread — Yep :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
    I bet marina is glad you have reminded me :cool:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/pedantickarl/ pedanticKarl

    Speaking of pete, has anyone suggested
    Peter Cottontail for the bunny yet?

    I heard it through a video that peter is good with pencils. And, peter is related to little tail. I see a connection here. :lol:

    Pencil

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    :mrgreen: – Yep :mrgreen:
    ;-)

    Oh, I’m sure she will be.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    I was having fun with the Yep word on the two puppies vid page making it into an acronym, I’m not sure if you saw the thread?
    http://www.hotforwords.com/2010/05/26/ras-syndrome/#comment-176642
    I never really used it before but I think it is the perfect one word thing to say in certain circumstances (I mean in real life of course), here it is only like an inside joke (not trying to hurt anyone though), actually a compliment. And Marina actually said the two puppies thing first or maybe it was cha cha? And they do complement her nicely.
    first time I even used these two…
    compliment – complement
    …together — Yep

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    Actually I did see it, (Your Enormous Puppies) cha cha :mrgreen:
    I would think that there’s no harm in it and I doubt it bothers her. You know if she’s got it….
    Believe me she’s read worse things.
    She probably knows it’s a compliment ;-)
    ….but at the same time I shouldn’t speak for her so this is just MY opinion. but seriously, I wouldn’t worry about it
    dude. :smile:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/impaler112/ VenomRocK

    You know that thing you did with one of her twitpics, the one you called INFINITY. That’s some pretty cool stuff. :cool: ;-)

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/doncross2bear/ doncross2bear

    Hey Karl,
    Didja know that the buck & doe thing also applies to squirrels, chipmunks and (ugh) rats? The jack & jill also applies to the opossum (or ‘possum, or softshell armadillo). Raccoons are boar & sow, like pigs. We simple rural folk in flyover states know this shit. :grin:

  • thematrix75

    Cute new bunny Marina,how about bugs as in bugs bunny.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com/members/gootar/ gravityboy

    Yep, that TwitPic you are talking about (your last comment) it is my favorite and it is about ready to drop off. I have a feeling as soon as she has a new twitpic ready to upload a diabolical grin will appear on her face and she will think to herself… “this will crush him” …then she will push the button — Yep, it’s going to happen.
    p.s. thanks

    I’d go with “Boris” the bunny…in keeping with the Russian political theme. :cool:

  • http://arafinte.wordpress.com/ arafin

    If it’s a male, I respectively suggest “Hugh”, (as in Hefner). Sort of a “what goes around comes around” kinda thing).

    Hi IL2CF,
    You want to use http://translate.google.com

    “What do you call a rabbit with no legs?
    It does not matter, he can’t come anyway.” :lol:

  • iluv2cutfarts

    Yes – that was my take on it as well. I’ll just keep bugging Marina, I suppose.

    :???:

  • deluxenn

    Perhaps it should be like these
    version 1. No one would cut off his own foot to make “lucky rabbit’s foot”, if you did this, call yourself “lucky.”
    version 2. No one cut off rabbit’s foot to make “lucky rabbit’s foot”, if you did this. Call the rabbit “lucky.”
    lucky rabbit’s foot, in Russia usually known as Заячья лапка (Hare’s foot), lost in translation

    Maybe, is this better way?
    Как бы вы назвали кролика без ног? (How would you call a rabbit with no legs?)
    Что вы называете кроликом без ног? Like this, we would say about lifeless objects.
    However, the rabbit with no legs might be dead already. :grin:
