No, nothing quite so gauche.
The bunny originated from ancient fertility goddesses, and the idea that rabbits, well, breed like rabbits: thus, be fruitful and multiply. The fact that Jesus rose from the dead on the same day contributes to the whole rebirth thing, although he must have been somewhat grungy—sort of like a rawhide bone that your dog buries in the back yard, then retrieves a day or so later, so that the bone has that tasty sample of cat poop, bug juice, and dirt.
I work for a restaurant, and three people came in dressed as zombies. Awesome. Not once did they break character, but they did manage to upset some grandmother-age ladies. I'm not sure why, mayhaps because Jesus would have been a zombie? A few people didn't get it, or were otherwise nonplussed by the theatrics of it.
I say hoorah, and that combined with an Easter Bunny siting made the whole day rather circus like. I just hope the bunny is comfortable, wherever he doth go. She?
