Katie Price waited four weeks to name her youngest daughter ‘Bunny Hayler’

katie and bunny

Back in August, Katie Price welcomed her fifth child, a baby girl. We knew at the time that the baby had arrived early, and sources said the girl came two weeks premature. Now Katie says that the baby was born SIX weeks early. And it’s taken a month of Katie and her on-again husband Kieran Hayler to come up with a name for the little girl: Bunny. Her name is Bunny Hayler. Bunny’s older siblings have names like Princess Tiaamii Crystal Esther, Jett Riviera, Junior Savva Andreas Andre and Harvey Price. So, really… Bunny kind of got off easy. Katie debuted the baby on the new cover of OK Mag UK, and here are some highlights from the cover story:

It has taken Katie Price more than a month to decide on a name for her newborn daughter – her second child with husband Kieran Hayler – who she has called Bunny. Up until now the reality star has struggled to name her fifth child after giving birth to the newest member of the family on August 4. The 36-year-old revealed the exciting news to OK! magazine, out Tuesday, while posing with her little ‘miracle’, who was born six weeks early.

According to the mother-of-five, Lady, Disney, Precious, Bambi and Peggy were all in the running, before the couple settled on Bunny, OK! magazine stated. Katie already has a daughter called Princess Tiaamii with former husband Peter Andre, as well as sons Harvey, Junior and Jett.

‘We really struggled to decide on a name. I wanted to call her Duchess Kate or just Duchess, but Kieran didn’t like that, so we’ve chosen Bunny, which we both like’, the star told OK!. ‘It’s really cute, isn’t it? I considered it being spelt Bunni with a heart above the i, but I don’t think that’s really a part of the English language. I love Duchess Kate, though, so I’ve told Kieran that if we have another daughter that will be her name! I think it goes well with Princess. She would have been Duchess Kate of Brighton’, she added.

Last week, Katie wrote in her Now magazine column that she was suffering serious baby name block and felt pressure to match it up with her seven-year-old daughter’s name.

‘It’s so difficult to choose a name as I set my standards with Princess,’ she explained.

It would have been AWESOME if Katie Price had named her daughter Duchess Kate Hayler. That would have been amaze-balls. As for the tackiness of the name given to this innocent child… well, it’s fine. I mean, what can you do? It’s not even that bad, honestly. Lots of society women, past and present, have been nicknamed “Bunny”. Of course, they have proper names but everyone knows them as “Bunny.” So it’s not so bad.

    Can she be sterilized already?

    She gets pregnant every time she meets a new guy

    • Birdie says:

      Harsh much? Never heard a story of her treating her kids badly.

      • Anthea says:

        I actually think she’s so upfront that people know about all her worst stuff anyway and you’re right, I’ve read tons about her but nothing to suggest she’s a poor parent.

      • snowflake says:

        I agree with Audry, she does seem to have a kid with every cheating guy she dates, what’s wrong with a little birth control? Honestly, i feel like if she’s dating all these cheaters and having babies with them, she’s looking for love, whether it be through a man or a child. I really hope these kids are being taken care of, and wont have to end up taking care of their mom.

      • Gia says:

        Oh yeah…except for moving strangers into the house immediately after she hooks up with them. That’s great for the kids.

    • Diana says:

      She’s actually supposedly a caring, hands-on mom. I’ve always had respect for her after hearing about her raising her son, Harvey, who has a lot of physical and mental challenges. She did it on her own, too, after Dwight Yorke abandoned them both.

      • Gia says:

        No she didn’t. Her mother had to step in and quit her job to be his full time carer because Katie was leaving him with strangers to go party and could not handle his disability. Katie wheels him out for magazine shoots when she needs some good PR.

  2. retromancer says:

    It’s also Katie Price, so a name like Bunny? Perfectly expected tbh, and Katie/her antics are just really tiresome at this point. I wish her and her children well, though. I was born at 24 weeks, and having had conversations with my parents, I can only vaguely imagine the emotional toll a premature baby can have on the parents, and it’s not one – even with medicine as it is today – I’d wish on anyone.

  3. Brin says:

    That poor baby, having a bimbo for a mother.

  4. Mrs. Wellen Melon says:

    You just know this kid will rebel when she’s older and break her parents’ heart by becoming a brain surgeon or a high court judge.

  5. lower-case deb says:

    Harvey Prince sounds the most harmless. however, the celebrity baby naming trend ad it is, he’s the odd one out…

  6. Aussie girl says:

    It reminds me of charlottes mother in law on sex and the city. Oh and I thought her partner cheated on her with her best friend..? Like sand through the hour glass.. So are the days of our lives…

  7. Birdie says:

    She names her children as if she is a 5 year old girl, who loves princesses and Disney fairytales. I agree, Bunny is lucky she is not named freaking Duchess Kate!!

  8. Erinn says:

    FOUR WEEKS FOR THAT?!

    I considered it being spelt Bunni with a heart above the i, but I don’t think that’s really a part of the English language.

    I wish she was just trolling us, but I really think she must be that stupid.

    • Tristan says:

      She is trolling everybody. Katie Price is incredibly astute when it comes to business. She has made a huge fortune, especially by European standards, and has been very savvy about where to invest her money. She is merely giving her public what it wants. She regularly wipes the floor with people who try to put her down on TV

  9. NewWester says:

    Maybe in the future Bunny will date Kate Winslet’s son Bear?

  10. Kellie says:

    The baby had a near miss with “Dutchess Kate of Brighton”, I hate to say it, but Bunny is probably the better of the two in this situation.
    I really liked Katies reality shows, but she does make some poor life choices.

  11. LAK says:

    Le Sigh. That baby is lucky given the possible options.

  12. Rubber Ducky says:

    Everything she does, amuses the hell out of me 😆 She’s fully self aware of her ludicrous life. At least she’s made quite a lucrative career out of it. Good for her. Welcome to the family, Bunny.

    • Erinn says:

      Good for her, maybe, but a shame for the kids that she’s naming like a little girl names her stuffed animals.

      • TheSageM says:

        @erin, The kids can always change their names by deed poll, no big deal. I don’t think Bunny is too bad, especially when you consider the alternatives.

      • Erinn says:

        TheSageM – they can’t change their name for quite some time though, right? Have to be 16 to do it themselves.

        Bunny isn’t too bad considering the alternatives, but still. I suppose it helps that the kids will have money.

      • mayamae says:

        I put far more thought into naming my pets. I have a friend whose husband hates his name so much, he goes by his initials. YET, he insisted their son be named Achilles – and the baby will be nicknamed by initials. I don’t get it.

  13. MrsBPitt says:

    She is like a six year old naming her dolls!

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      Or naming her pets. Wow, I try to be “not my baby” and all, but those are some dumb a$$ names.

  14. AG-UK says:

    It’s not as bad as it could be, I think Jamie Oliver’s are pretty silly too. Here you can wait I think 30 days before naming a child. I know some who called theirs one thing for a couple of weeks then decided it didn’t fit and named it legally something totally different.

    • booboobird says:

      Yea, I’ve liked Jamie Oliver for a while but his and wife’s naming skills leave me baffled. That’s like he invented honey boo boo before there was one.

  15. Loopy says:

    This is how she makes her money, i think its sad. Meet a guy, get married,have babies,get divorced, drug guy through the mud,get OK covers,tacky reality show and repeat.

  16. Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

    In the last photo KP looks good for a 53 year old, almost a bit like Catherine Bach from the Dukes of Hazzard and he looks all of 25. Bryan Adams also named his daughter Bunny.

  17. Isa says:

    I have so much secondhand embarrassment for these kids.

  18. Ag says:

    meh. comparatively not too bad of a name. and a cute baby. 🙂

  19. belladonna says:

    Well… in a world of Aidens, Caydens, Braydens, Jaydens, Maydens, Baydens, etc Bunny aint so bad.

    • mata says:

      I actually know a few Aidens, Caydens, Braydens, Jaydens, and one Layden, so you are absolutely right. I can’t hate on Bunny.

  20. Allie says:

    I keep hoping that one day she’ll have a “gotcha!” moment and reveal that her kids name’s are Sara, Oliver, Peter, Michael and Louisa.

  21. Luciana says:

    I keep reading “bunny boiler”. Not a good name.

  22. Andrea says:

    Bunny sounds like an old rich socialite’s name. I kind-of like it (gasp) Better than her other kids names (although I have a friend named Jett so I can’t hate on that name and I don’t mind the name Harvey either).

  23. Anony says:

    I’m sorry but I disagree. I really hate the name bunny. That should be a nick name, not a legal name. Way to limit your child in life. No one is going to take a Dr. Bunny Hayler seriously and there have been studies showing how a name choice like that really can give the child a complex growing up and steer them away from professional positions subconsciously. When I hear the name “Bunny” i don’t think high society. I think stripper, adult-actress, bimbo, etc. Play-boy bunny. What if this girl doesn’t grow up beautiful? What if she wants a serious occupation? Poor thing. I just don’t think it’s fair when adults saddle their children with ridiculous names all in the name of “uniqueness”.

  24. Mel M says:

    I only know her from that reality show she did years ago with Peter Andre? It was entertaining but I can’t believe she’s still around. Then again I’m in the US.

    Coincidently my son was 6 weeks early and weighed 5lbs 10oz and all of the nurses in the NICU thought he was full term. He’s still huge too.

  25. anne_000 says:

    Bunny in-Hayler.

  26. Charlotte says:

    It’s funny she went with Bunny because when her first daughter was born, Perez Hilton came out saying he had insider knowledge she would name her ‘Bunny’. Obviously, she didn’t then. Doubt it’s just a coincidence.

    I try really hard to like Katie Price, but it doesn’t come easily…

  27. Layla says:

    I don’t know who this person is.
