I found out that the double bun hairstyle has some history in China and was mostly worn by girls and unmarried women (cough cough Ai Chow refusing to be married, cough cough). It's also generally a hairstyle associated with youth, hence why eternally young Nezha is usually depicted with buns.
Another fun fact! Rabbits were associated with homosexuals, though primarily referring to mlm at some point. I believe it comes from two sources in Chinese culture: one is Tu'er Shen, whose name literally means "rabbit deity" and his worship was recently revived by a Taoist priest. Here's an excerpt, since it explains the story better than I can:

The other source has something to do with how hard it is to tell the sex of a rabbit. I don't know too much about this part, but I still think it's kinda funny. It's essentially saying: 'we can never tell what gender those rabbits are. They could even be dun dun dungay'.
Okay long winded way to explain why I gave Ai Chow bunny earrings but yeah.
What is with me and putting so much thought into earrings? I did that with the color of Bao's earring too. I should just make that a running bit whenever I draw side characters.
BONUS!
