        Well, there is officially no more room at the inn. Always, aiming to make my hubby happy, I went back to the shelter today. I was checking to see if they had the bunny HE fell in love with a couple weeks ago when we got Annie and Potus. They did! Now we have her lol. But he’s stuck on a name. So he said he’d let you guys help us out!   Oddly enough, she looks like Biscuit on steroids lol. Her current name is Aphrodite. Its a mouthful, I think. And yes. I think I have lost my mind. She will be living in our kitchen, as its large and we don’t have much for the kitchen. That’s why I asked about cat food (another post). And here she is!

          OMG she’s HUGE!!! SOOOOO jealous! Ha ha ha…. Oh, by the way – CONGRATULATIONS! Your both so lucky!

          Did you say your after a name??? Ha ha ha ha! Trust me to be the first to reply….. DOH! Lol!
          For some reason I’ve had ‘Wally’ on my mind… (do yourself a favour and don’t bother asking why??? Lol!), but I doubt you wouldn’t want to call your beautiful new girl Wally??? That’s something I’d do….. he he he he he!

          Edit to ADD – you could always do the Aussie thing and call her ‘Blue’! We call anything red/ginger ‘BLUE’! Again, don’t ask why…

          And if your blue, like a blue cattle dog for example – it gets called RED!

          Yep – BLUE! That’s ‘officially’ my choice.

                Well congrats again on a new bunny. I thought it was Biscuit at first too. I don’t know why but the name Freya came to mind when I look at her.

                  She’s a big girl! Not suggesting this as a name (its a mouthful too) but she looks like a caramel cream candy — I didn’t say anything to him but showed hubby the pic and he said the same thing! Maybe Carrie. (Don’t go there AH!!!)

                  Edit — nothing wrong with the name BM, but AH will say you can’t call her that because it’s my tv name.

                    Speaking of Wally, we had the sweetest female dog named Walter when I was growing up. We tried to change her name but she would only answer to Walter (although my grandfather insisted on calling her Tinkerbelle).

                      I like Carrie. Although I had a hamster named Carrie (short for Caramel) when I was a kid, so I’m probably being biased. LOL

                        Caremel . . . Karma! (fate — your hubby fell in love with her, you got two other bunnies, went back and got her!)

                            Well JR, if BM calls her Carrie – whose gonna name their bunny Debra after my TV character???

                            If you decide on Carrie for her name BM, you’ll have to go out and get another bunny and call it Debra!

                              On second thought, I think you should name the bunny Andi!

                                    Such a pretty marmalade girl.
                                    You could name her Lola; after all “whatever Lola wants, Lola gets.” And she got her humans.
                                    Congrats on the new addition!

                                            She looks like a cappuccino! Or some sort of marbled rock…
                                            Here’s what comes to my mind:

                                            – Leona
                                            – Mia
                                            – Sara
                                            – Kaja (pronounced “Kaya”)
                                            – Ainsley
                                            – Rowena

                                              NO bunny deserves being called AH after a naughty bunny and an even worse cheeky owner! Ha ha ha…..

                                              I’d stick with Freya, Caramel (Carrie) or Lola – such beautiful names for a BEAUTIFUL girl!
                                              How excited you and your hubby must be – new babies ‘every where’! Sigh……

                                                Hubby said last night maybe something Halloween-ish or fall-ish, since we got her in October. I immediately thought of pumpkin! But he said that was too normal lol

                                                  You could always name her October? That’s a gorgeous name. You could also name her:

                                                      So pretty! Congrats again BM & Hubby. So was it a surprise for your husband or did he know you were going back for her?

                                                      I had thought “Fall” theme names would be good too.

                                                      -Cassia: instead of cinnamon
                                                      -Autumn: as already mentioned.
                                                      -Amber or Sienna: after fall colours.
                                                      -Mulcher: just kidding!
                                                      -Shizuha Aki: Goddess of Autumn ( if you like anime).
                                                      -Aki or Akiko:
                                                      http://nameberry.com/blog/autumn-names-from-poppy-to-persephone

                                                      Other names:
                                                      -Sundae: like caramel sundae
                                                      -Butterscotch
                                                      -Kumara: NZ word for orange sweet potato but common in Oz too.
                                                      -Libby: after the Libby’s brand pumpkin products. (I had to google!)
                                                      -Ginny: from Ginger or Harry Potter
                                                      -Deirdre: she reminds me of a deer with those dappled white spots.
                                                      -Dapple ?

                                                      I’m outta ideas now.

                                                              Butternut. Like butter nut pumpkin. They are autumnal and somewhat the same color. And you can say ” You butter nut, Butternut” when she wants to chew cables, carpet, wall-paper etc.

                                                              She’s very pretty! Forgot to say that.

                                                                      I would call my kitty Butters and Butterball. I didn’t like his real name (Buddy), but he came with it and he responded to it so it was difficult to change.

                                                                      You know, if you find a name you like, then just start calling her that and see if it sticks. My husband did that to me numerous times. He liked a name, so he just starting calling said pet that name and it would eventually stick. It didn’t matter if I was undecided or didn’t really like the name. LOL

I even texted my hubby on my way to church this morning that I voted for Butternut lol. He’s not impressed. Especially when I said oh! We could call her butnut for short! Lol So he and I may have a Tucker/Wuck Wucks vs. Manny type war going on over her name soon! Lol
