binky

Infant's oral comfort

A binky is a baby's pacifier—the rubber or silicone nipple infants suck for comfort.

The word is nursery talk, often used by parents and young children.

Separately, a binky is the excited jump a rabbit makes when happy, twisting in midair with a kick: The bunny did a binky when I let her out of her cage.
