Tips

usage

宾尼 is a common transliteration of English 'Binny', 'Benny', or 'Bunny' (the latter in Hong Kong's 宾尼兔 = Bugs Bunny in some renderings, though 兔八哥 is more common in mainland Chinese). 宾 (bīn) for the 'B-' onset and 尼 (ní) for the '-y' ending — both are workhorse transliteration characters (compare 肯尼迪 Kennedy, 安东尼 Anthony).
