dumb bunny

Clueless naive person

A dumb bunny is a foolish or naive person, used affectionately or dismissively depending on tone.

The phrase suggests harmless stupidity rather than malice—someone oblivious or slow on the uptake: Don't be such a dumb bunny; he's obviously flirting with you.

It sounds dated and gentle, more likely from a grandmother than a peer.
