My personal headcanon is that they were originally called Fredbear and Bonnie, but then when the new characters (Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy) were brought out they changed the original Bonnie's name to Spring Bonnie to differentiate them
@@danielletheprotogen Nah, the only time the game says "Spring Bonnie" is in the line "Management has also been made aware that the spring Bonnie animatronic has been noticebly moved." Wich means "Spring" is not part of their name, is just to identify if it has spring locks or not. Wich means the classic blue Bonnie is just a redesign, and he was originally yellow.
It is definitely just springbonnie as that’s what he’s called in fnaf world why spring Bonnie and fredbear instead of spring Freddy or spring bear we’ll never know
@@guycrew3973My personal headcanon is that they were originally Fredbear and Bonnie, but then when the new characters (Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy) were brought out they changed the original Bonnie's name to Spring Bonnie to differentiate them
I've always thought he was simply called Bonnie back in Fredbear's But when they were carried over alongside the new cast of characters in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, as Phone Guy says, he was renamed Spring Bonnie to tell him apart from the new blue bunny - I also like to think Fredbear was given a black hat and bowtie and renamed Spring Freddy to cover up the biting incident, later becoming Golden Freddy
About Golden Freddy, probably didn't happen, simply because all the game gives us is that Golden Freddy is not an Animatronic, yet just a ghost, since he already switched designs at least 2 times in FNaF 1 and 2. And as we have a clue, Fredbear had the same bodyshape as FNaF 1 Freddy, as we seen in UCN, so Golden Freddy being the actual Fredbear suit is probably impossible, why would they redesign him 3 times if both him and Springbonnie would not be used ever again?
@@SoledByVT in my headcanon, withered golden freddy WAS fredbear, as he is shown to actually have his own design (missing ear, eye wires, yknow) but after the DCI, they destroyed fredbear, why? because william did the dci inside of a fredbear suit, think about it, if the yellow rabbit was in the fnaf 1 location, how'd it end up in fnaf 2? by the time the fnaf 2 place opened, fredbear's was long closed, so they probably already threw springbonnie into a saferoom at that point
@@SoledByVT in fnaf 1, golden freddy is a mere hallucination, as he seems to be a fnaf 1 freddy recolour, this is also backed up in fnaf 2's afternight cutscenes, when golden freddy appears, he seems to have a yellow escence, all lighting on him appears yellow, this could be because scott doesnt have a proper model for him and simply just turned freddy yellow in photoshop, but maybe it's because he isn't real
We now know (since October 1st.) that his mascot name IS/WAS in fact Spring Bonnie, we can see this in the captions of a video posted by Universal (I think?) which is a movie clip of Afton getting springlocked. In the description, it says something along the lines of: "He was being trapped in the malfunctioning Spring Bonnie suit with the animatronics surrounding him." I do think that the characters could call him/he could call himself 'The Yellow Rabbit' to not use a name often associated with the jolly, happy character that is/was Spring Bonnie. I ALSO think that the company could have re-named Spring Bonnie to The Yellow Rabbit to not use the name associated with Fredbear, the one who caused the Bite of 83'. So, to avoid using the names associated with the bite and lose customers, (Fredbear and Spring Bonnie) they changed them to Golden Freddy and The Yellow Rabbit. Still having them around, yet re-named, would explain what phone guy (Ralph) meant, having said in one of his calls/messages in FNaF 2, someone used one of the spare suits they had in the back, a yellow one.
I think it was just Bonnie at fredbears until they made Freddy’s and changed his mascot name to spring Bonnie to differentiate him with the new blue bonnie
In Battington's (Nonexistent Video) Spring Bonnie is called Bonnie Bun and I think Spring Bonnie is what the staff calls the suit because of the Springlock mechanism inside the suit and Bonnie Bun who resembles a Bonnie so Springlock + Bonnie = Spring Bonnie. And in Battington's newest video (The Horror Attraction) the narrator in the horror attraction ride calls Spring Bonnie Springtrap since there's a person trapped inside the suit and Bonnie Bun is the official name of the character that the guests call him. And I know Battington's video are not canon to fnaf.
Tbh I always thought that back in the original days of fredbears he would just simply be bonnie, and after the first Freddy's location opening would be called spring bonnie to differentiate him from the newly rebranded blue/purple bonnie that we all know and love today.
My guess is that spring bonnie is like a code name used for the workers to simply describe the animatronic which has spring lock in it. While yellow rabbit is the official name to the customer as their mascot
Springbonnie makes no sense because he came before normal bonnie. Adding spring to differenciate them wouldnt happen because there was no normal bonnie yet. I personally think that since theres Fredbear, he would be Bonnierabbit.
You guys do know their name is just Bonnie right? like how fnaf 1 bonnie is just bonnie but fnaf 2 bonnie is toy bonnie as to not mix them up so in universe he/she is most likely just called bonnie
First, nostalgia, second, I personally don’t agree. The name Golden Freddy was never used in-universe of the first seven games, and I mean being said by Phoney or Phone Dude, or any characters in the mini-games, he’s always referred to as, FredBear. But perhaps FredBear is called Golden Freddy, my speculation would be that perhaps it’s a name given when FredBear became forgotten. People know Freddy Fazbear more since there has been two major incidents like the M.C.I 85 and D.C.I 87, and Freddy’s was opened from like 83 - 93 or at least 95? So maybe Golden Freddy is meant as in referring to FredBear as a recolor of Freddy when it’s the other way around because like I said, FredBear is forgotten.
William Afton and Henry Emily opened a restaurant around the early 70s, named Fredbear's Family Diner, which quickly evolved into a chain of restaurants known as "Freddy Fazbear's Pizza," started in 1983, under the company of Fazbear Entertainment, Inc. At some point, both of them left the company, with an unknown individual taking over as CEO. William was secretly a serial killer, using mascot costumes to lure, abduct, and murder kids. His motives aren't known, though widely speculated to be him trying to achieve immortality through researching the paranormal, haunted metal (known as remnant), which he created through the murders. His first target was Charlotte Emily, the daughter of Henry. She became the Marionette, a ghost who took care of and helped awaken the other lost souls. In 1983, William's younger son also died in an incident, at the fault of his eldest - Michael. The younger son (name unknown, BV for short) 's fate is still unknown, though often speculated to be connected to either Golden Freddy (an enigmatic spirit taking the form of a yellow bear) or helping Charlie with saving other souls. "I will put you back together" was the last thing said to BV by a debatable party, most commonly believed to be either William, Charlie, or Golden Freddy. In 1985, William killed 2 kids, and 3 others were later connected to that incident (The Missing Children Incident, or MCI). He was arrested but released due to a lack of evidence. 4 of these kids were Gabriel, Susie, Little Jeremy, and Fritz, going on to haunt Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy, respectively, with Susie implied to have been the first to die. The 5th is commonly believed to be named Cassidy, becoming Golden Freddy, though some think it's someone else. In 1987, William pretended to be a security guard at a new Pizzeria and killed 5 more kids (DCI for short), who went on to be the Toy animatronics. This caused the unimportant Bite of '87. In 1993, Mike worked a shift at the haunted original Freddy's. Later that year, the location was closed, and the company went bankrupt. He later had some sort of nightmares about it and his brother's death, likely paranormal in nature. At some point, William went to that original Freddy's to destroy the 4 haunted robots, but ghosts manifested, and fearing for his life, he put on the costume he used to kill them. It was actually a part costume part robot hybrid, though, and due to the leaking roof, the machine snapped on him, killing him. He went on to haunt it and/or his corpse inside. While Freddy's existed, a Sister Location called "Circus Baby's Pizza World" opened. It was a front for William to kill more kids, with the robots there made to kidnap them. It backfired when his daughter sneaked in to see Baby, and it killed her. She then haunted it. William, distraught, locked her and the other robots from there in an underground warehouse where they were rented out for parties. The other robots also got haunted somehow, likely with melted down remnant from some other kids, most likely MCI. Years later, William sent Mike there to find Elizabeth. Thinking he was William, she tricked him, and the Funtime Robots combined into one amalgam of wires, killed Mike, and used his corpse as a skin suit to escape. He quickly rotted, and they had to escape to the sewers. He repossessed his corpse thanks to remnant, though. Around 30 years after his death (presumably 2023, though that may be debunked now), William was found by Phone Dude, who stole him and put him into his cheap horror attraction based on the Freddy's urban legends, not knowing William was inside the robot. After a few nights, the building burned down, and William escaped. There's also a good ending in that game where Charlie released the other spirits, but its canonicity is "complicated" according to Scott (FNaF creator). Mike also had a security logbook at some point, where two ghosts, BV and presumably Cassidy (given it's not him), talked about something. Finally, after like 50 years, Henry re-emerged and made a fake pizzeria, where he called the Funtime robots, now separated from Elizabeth, herself, and William. He also made a robot that captured Charlie. After a bunch of managers failed to collect all 4 robots, Mike came and succeeded. Henry burned them all and himself, with high temperatures now revealed to work on ghosts, apparently. Fazbear Entertainment, Inc. was supposedly closed for good. But one ghost, very highly implied to be Golden Freddy, though argued as a random never-before-seen 6th MCI kid by some, wasn't ready to let William go, so he kept him from being released and tortured him in super nightmares. There's a book series called Fazbear Frights which has debatable canonicity too that'd take place after this, but if canon it's basically just filler that nullifies the Vengeful Spirit nightmares thing. After all this, Fazbear Entertainment was revived as Fazbear Entertainment, LLC. They kidnapped a guy and gaslighted him into living in a secluded fake house they made for him, where he made FNAF games, in the FNaF universe, as to make it seem like it was all just fake stories. A VR game was later made, that was a remake of these, but some suspecious circuit boards were sent to be scanned into it, creating a paranormal, digital entity known as Glitchtrap. It appears as a man in Spring Bonnie (William's suit), acts exactly like William, knows stuff only William knows and even claims to be back, with William's catchphrase of sorts being "I always come back". After a bit of shenanigans, it manages to possess a beta tester and makes her his minion. We call her Vanny. Vanessa, most likely Vanny, then got a desk job at Fazbear Entertainment. Fazbear Funtime Service, a program where animatronics were mass produced and sent for parties, etc. got hijacked by Glitchtrap who made them hostile. He made Vanessa infiltrate the service as a fake FazEnt representative, supposedly fix his infection, but actually just cut off anyone's access to the system other than him, and send a data packet with him to the current Pizzeria - Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. In the current book series, most likely canon, there's this AI called Mimic1, which copies stuff. Many think that's actually what Glitchtrap is, just AI copying William. It's an ongoing debate. An Endoskeleton with it installed was sent to the last simulated Freddy's Henry built to burn, where it got out of control, started killing people and in the ongoing story is hunting down a group of teens. As the Pizzaplex was built on top of the simulated Freddy's, the Mimic got control over it too, but was quickly taken down. There's also this boy Gregory who ended up possessed by Glitchtrap and hacking the Pizzaplex for reasons unknown. Now in Security Breach (possibly 2035), Gregory, out of Glitchtrap's control, had to escape being trapped in the Pizzaplex, as all the robots controlled by Glitchtrap and Vanny wanted to kill him. With the help of Glamrock Freddy, most likely haunted by someone, though it's unknown who, Greg ended up finding a newly built Springtrap in the simulated Freddy's and somehow defeating it. There's also a giant abomination of wires that resambles the Funtime amalgam down there, it took this William away.
My answer would be he was originally just called bonnie before the the purplish blue variant was introduced, so to sepereate the two he was known as spring bonnie. I think spring bonnie isn't really a seperate character he's simply the first bonnie.
When checking, however, the suit is just a springlock suit, and the mascot specifically for William Afton, also remember it can switch between on stage robotics and manual human entertainment because Springtrap (William) is basically just a rotted older suit version mixed with flesh OF SPRING BONNIE. (Tldr: The name is just Spring Bonnie, but the person inside is William)
I always thought his name was just Bonnie, but they needed a way to differentiate him when they started making the Fazbear gang so they added Spring to it
My theory is that originally, when Fredbear’s opened, Spring Bonnie’s original name was just Bonnie, but when Freddy’s was in its development, Fazbear Entertainment were lazy to give their animatronics actual names, so they gave their chicken character’s name Chica, and the Fox character’s name Foxy, and gave the bear a name that is slightly similar to Fredbear, being Freddy’s. They couldn’t come up with a name for the bunny, but instead changed Fredbear’s Bonnie’s name into Spring Bonnie because it could both mean the springlocks to the staff, and could also mean him being a different version to Bonnie. They then give the new bunny the name and Freddy’s was made.
Guys. Spring. Bunny. Spring Bonnie. Am I the only one that made this connection? It’s not spring like the springlocks. Which, I’ll admit would be weird. It’s spring like Easter time.
It’s spring Bonnie. It’s in the official book guide or whatever it’s called. They just called him the yellow rabbit because it’s like how the kids didn’t know his name.
For the people saying William Afton ur correct but wrong. William Afton is the creator and the person who possesses "spring Bonnie". Now spring Bonnie was the original name but after the death it was springtrap correct me if I'm wrong.
When I was like, 11 years old, I didn’t really make the connection with “spring”trap and the spring locks, and I made an OC (if you can even call it that) who was literally just springtrap with eyelashes and a pink flower and called her “Summertrap”. Because I thought he was named after the season 😭
Gonna come in with this theory and say they were called The Yellow Bunny early in the life of fredbears but by 83 it fell out of favor for Spring Bonnie.
It's just "Bonnie" because that name already existed in 1983 and "Spring Bonnie" is probably just a name the employees use to refer to the specific Bonnie costume that has springlocks
Have u ever thought that its just Bonnie and that co workers dubbed the springlock suit spring bonnie as a nick name to distinguish it from the non springlock bonnie animatronics that were made
I believe back in the days of Fredbear’s he was simply called Bonnie after all he was the original but once Fredbear’s family diner was out and Fazbear entertainment was in business they probably changed the name to Yellow rabbit or Golden Bonnie similar to how Fredbear was changed into Golden Freddy.
Well, because the actual Animatronic is called golden Bonnie, but the children didn’t know the name at the time, so they started calling him stuff like that
Depends which version. In the games, he's spring bonnie. In the books, whenever William is in the suit he's the yellow rabbit. In ITP, it's "the creature"
They call him The Yellow Rabbit because they don't remember their murderer and usually ghosts will only remember pieces of things, not the entire thing. So that's why they call William Afton The Yellow Rabbit.
Spring Bonnie pre-murders and then yellow rabbit after murders I think. The company probably scrubbed away all traces of him, so all people could remember was the mysterious yellow rabbit.
I think his real name when on stage in FredBears was just Bonnie but in the games to separate the 2 characters Bonnie and SpringBonnie they call him the Yellow Rabbit or SpringBonnie
What if we called him "the yellow Bonnie" because that's what people would've probably called spring bonnie back when william appleton was making kids spill their apple juice
Commenting on this comment and other comments so they get top comment in the comments section because I’m commenting about the comments of the comment section because this is comment inception😁
He’s the originated version Bonnie and he contains spring locks unlike the other animatronics (not including fredbear) and so that’s how you get the name (Spring Bonnie)
Anyone else think he could’ve just been called Bonnie? And, after the rebranding, he was changed from yellow to blue to not associate him with the original Bonnie?
Also the color yellow most having to do with the spring setting, and his name has been spring bonnie for like almost a decade and if scott decides to change it now, that will be alot of anger going towards that decision 😭
No, William Afton is a person, Spring Bonnie is a springlock suit (meaning it can serve as both animatronic and costume) you might be thinking of Springtrap which is William fused with a withered spring bonnie
It has to be "yellow rabbit" cause golden freddy was called "yellow bear" in the game files. I think later characters who didnt know about him being "yellow rabbit" started calling him "spring bonnie" cause of the springlocks
I think it's Spring Bonnie, but in the game files, Golden Freddy is called Yellow Bear, so it could be The Yellow Rabbit
I'm pretty sure later media like UCN and the books call him Golden Freddy

But one ghost, very highly implied to be Golden Freddy, though argued as a random never-before-seen 6th MCI kid by some, wasn't ready to let William go, so he kept him from being released and tortured him in super nightmares.
There's a book series called Fazbear Frights which has debatable canonicity too that'd take place after this, but if canon it's basically just filler that nullifies the Vengeful Spirit nightmares thing.
After all this, Fazbear Entertainment was revived as Fazbear Entertainment, LLC. They kidnapped a guy and gaslighted him into living in a secluded fake house they made for him, where he made FNAF games, in the FNaF universe, as to make it seem like it was all just fake stories.
A VR game was later made, that was a remake of these, but some suspecious circuit boards were sent to be scanned into it, creating a paranormal, digital entity known as Glitchtrap. It appears as a man in Spring Bonnie (William's suit), acts exactly like William, knows stuff only William knows and even claims to be back, with William's catchphrase of sorts being "I always come back". After a bit of shenanigans, it manages to possess a beta tester and makes her his minion. We call her Vanny.
Vanessa, most likely Vanny, then got a desk job at Fazbear Entertainment. Fazbear Funtime Service, a program where animatronics were mass produced and sent for parties, etc. got hijacked by Glitchtrap who made them hostile. He made Vanessa infiltrate the service as a fake FazEnt representative, supposedly fix his infection, but actually just cut off anyone's access to the system other than him, and send a data packet with him to the current Pizzeria - Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex.
In the current book series, most likely canon, there's this AI called Mimic1, which copies stuff. Many think that's actually what Glitchtrap is, just AI copying William. It's an ongoing debate. An Endoskeleton with it installed was sent to the last simulated Freddy's Henry built to burn, where it got out of control, started killing people and in the ongoing story is hunting down a group of teens. As the Pizzaplex was built on top of the simulated Freddy's, the Mimic got control over it too, but was quickly taken down. There's also this boy Gregory who ended up possessed by Glitchtrap and hacking the Pizzaplex for reasons unknown.
Now in Security Breach (possibly 2035), Gregory, out of Glitchtrap's control, had to escape being trapped in the Pizzaplex, as all the robots controlled by Glitchtrap and Vanny wanted to kill him. With the help of Glamrock Freddy, most likely haunted by someone, though it's unknown who, Greg ended up finding a newly built Springtrap in the simulated Freddy's and somehow defeating it. There's also a giant abomination of wires that resambles the Funtime amalgam down there, it took this William away.
Holy yappatron
"cream colored cuniculus the yellow yellow rabbit" got my dying 😂😂
“ symmetry my friend!”
-William Aftom
My answer would be he was originally just called bonnie before the the purplish blue variant was introduced, so to sepereate the two he was known as spring bonnie. I think spring bonnie isn't really a seperate character he's simply the first bonnie.
The yellow rabbit is actually a Great name tbh, scott knows his stuff fr. It sounds more mysterious
Wait.. Cream colored bunny... I know! C.R.E.A.M.!
When checking, however, the suit is just a springlock suit, and the mascot specifically for William Afton, also remember it can switch between on stage robotics and manual human entertainment because Springtrap (William) is basically just a rotted older suit version mixed with flesh OF SPRING BONNIE. (Tldr: The name is just Spring Bonnie, but the person inside is William)
I always thought his name was just Bonnie, but they needed a way to differentiate him when they started making the Fazbear gang so they added Spring to it
Children in books usually refer to him as just “Bonnie” so it was probably that
S Y M M E T R Y
Look Man Yellow Rabbit and Yellow Bear Is The SpringLock ,but Fredbear and Springbonnie are Animatronics 😊.
My theory is that originally, when Fredbear’s opened, Spring Bonnie’s original name was just Bonnie, but when Freddy’s was in its development, Fazbear Entertainment were lazy to give their animatronics actual names, so they gave their chicken character’s name Chica, and the Fox character’s name Foxy, and gave the bear a name that is slightly similar to Fredbear, being Freddy’s. They couldn’t come up with a name for the bunny, but instead changed Fredbear’s Bonnie’s name into Spring Bonnie because it could both mean the springlocks to the staff, and could also mean him being a different version to Bonnie. They then give the new bunny the name and Freddy’s was made.
"Both the Springlocks, and the Season of Spring, which rabbits are Afton associated with."
SYMMETRY, MY FRIEND!!!
I imagine his actual name is just Bonnie because I think it be weird to name a animatronic Spring Bonnie when the normal Bonnie hasn’t even exist yet.
“That rabbits are AFTON associated with”
SYMMETRY, MY FRIEND.🗡😈
It's neither it's actually the cream colored cunicuius
The spring bonnie is a friend and the yellow rabbit is the enemy.
Guys. Spring. Bunny. Spring Bonnie. Am I the only one that made this connection? It’s not spring like the springlocks. Which, I’ll admit would be weird. It’s spring like Easter time.
It’s spring Bonnie. It’s in the official book guide or whatever it’s called. They just called him the yellow rabbit because it’s like how the kids didn’t know his name.
“YELLOW SPRING RABBIT 🤑”
He’s called spring Bonnie in fnaf world so it’s pretty obvious Scott intended for his name to be Spring Bonnie.
Golden freddy was actually originally called "yellow bear" so it would make sense for springbonnie's real name to be "yellow rabbit"
For the people saying William Afton ur correct but wrong. William Afton is the creator and the person who possesses "spring Bonnie". Now spring Bonnie was the original name but after the death it was springtrap correct me if I'm wrong.
When I was like, 11 years old, I didn’t really make the connection with “spring”trap and the spring locks, and I made an OC (if you can even call it that) who was literally just springtrap with eyelashes and a pink flower and called her “Summertrap”. Because I thought he was named after the season 😭
Gonna come in with this theory and say they were called The Yellow Bunny early in the life of fredbears but by 83 it fell out of favor for Spring Bonnie.
In the fnaf files Glitchtraps name is "Tilt" therefore, Glitchtrap was an early springbonnie mascot.
“Spring bunny” and “symmetry my friend “😂❤😅
It could also have the meaning for "spring" as in hop. Although I call him Golden Bonnie because of Golden Freddy.
It's just "Bonnie" because that name already existed in 1983 and "Spring Bonnie" is probably just a name the employees use to refer to the specific Bonnie costume that has springlocks
Have u ever thought that its just Bonnie and that co workers dubbed the springlock suit spring bonnie as a nick name to distinguish it from the non springlock bonnie animatronics that were made
Spring Bonnie because it’s basically a springlock version of Bonnie
Remember Golden Bonnie?
I believe back in the days of Fredbear’s he was simply called Bonnie after all he was the original but once Fredbear’s family diner was out and Fazbear entertainment was in business they probably changed the name to Yellow rabbit or Golden Bonnie similar to how Fredbear was changed into Golden Freddy.
Freddy Fazbear = Fredbear
Bonnie the Bunny = Bonbunny
Golden Bonnie. Or considering it’s been decommissioned like Fredbear, its original name may have just been “Bonnie”.
Well, because the actual Animatronic is called golden Bonnie, but the children didn’t know the name at the time, so they started calling him stuff like that
I call him spring Bonnie when talking about the lore, but I normally just call him yellow rabbit
I think it's springbonnie because in fnaf world his character is named SpringBonnie.
I usually call him Springy. It just popped in my mind one day and stuck.
Depends which version. In the games, he's spring bonnie. In the books, whenever William is in the suit he's the yellow rabbit. In ITP, it's "the creature"
They call him The Yellow Rabbit because they don't remember their murderer and usually ghosts will only remember pieces of things, not the entire thing. So that's why they call William Afton The Yellow Rabbit.
SpringBunny Makes more sense.
If they already invented the name "Bonnie" why they just don't call him SpringBonnie.
SpringBunny just sounds better
Spring Bonnie pre-murders and then yellow rabbit after murders I think. The company probably scrubbed away all traces of him, so all people could remember was the mysterious yellow rabbit.
if it was “Spring Bonnie” its likely it’d just be “Bonnie”, because i doubt they’d be calling him “Spring Bonnie” before there was any other Bonnie 😭
I think his real name when on stage in FredBears was just Bonnie but in the games to separate the 2 characters Bonnie and SpringBonnie they call him the Yellow Rabbit or SpringBonnie
What if we called him "the yellow Bonnie" because that's what people would've probably called spring bonnie back when william appleton was making kids spill their apple juice
“Spring” could also mean how a rabbit jumps into the air so it’s actually a TRIPLE meaning.

commenting on this so its the top comment

Commenting on this comment and other comments so they get top comment in the comments section because I’m commenting about the comments of the comment section because this is comment inception😁
He’s the originated version Bonnie and he contains spring locks unlike the other animatronics (not including fredbear) and so that’s how you get the name (Spring Bonnie)
I can't unhear rhe "Skibidi my friend"😢
I do naot know about you guys but The “symmetry, my friend,” at the end made me laugh
Golden Freddy is his counterpart so he should be called Golden Bonny, it just makes sense to me.
But wasn't he *Fredbear* before?
May I propose the name, Bon Bunny. This is basically a head canon but it matches with Fred Bear and I like it.
Anyone else think he could’ve just been called Bonnie? And, after the rebranding, he was changed from yellow to blue to not associate him with the original Bonnie?
The og lore answer is Bonnie if you are talking about the name of the animatronic and what the mascot name was
It could actually have a triple meaning! Spring is also used for actions like jumping and bounding, which rabbits are also known for!
Scott: you got the name right
The youtuber: I did?
Scott: yes, honey the bunny
Spring Bonnie is basically William Afton, which is a guy for known for being spring trap
"Which rabbits are Afton associated with" 😂
Also the color yellow most having to do with the spring setting, and his name has been spring bonnie for like almost a decade and if scott decides to change it now, that will be alot of anger going towards that decision 😭
That line at the end was a jacket from halo
"SpringBonnie's real name is William Afton, no? "
No, William Afton is a person, Spring Bonnie is a springlock suit (meaning it can serve as both animatronic and costume) you might be thinking of Springtrap which is William fused with a withered spring bonnie
It would also be weird that the first duo of fazbear entettainement was fredbear and yellow rabbit
Why did “symmetry my friend!!!” Jumpscare me😭
i am pretty certain he’s called “spring bonnie” since in fnaf world that’s his name and fnaf world is canon soo
His name was most likely just Bonnie, and when the actual Bonnie animatronic came in, they started referring him as Spring-Bonnie to seperate the two
This music box is nostalgic for some reason
It has to be "yellow rabbit" cause golden freddy was called "yellow bear" in the game files. I think later characters who didnt know about him being "yellow rabbit" started calling him "spring bonnie" cause of the springlocks
