All what is mentioned is right.It gets its name from the nervous twitching seen periorally as in a rabbit whose whiskers twitch. Rabbits are nervous animals. Therefore... easy to remember this way.

Rabbit syndrome
A rare neuroleptic-induced form of parkinsonism usually manifested as 4–6 Hz, rhythmic discharges involving the jaw, perinasal, and perioral musculature; so-named because the movements mimic those seen with the chewing movements of a rabbit.
Rabbit syndrome is an uncommon, tongue-sparing, orofacial movement disturbance, rapid and regular in nature and associated with prolonged use of neuroleptics. Two cases reports illustrate how anticholinergic agents successfully treat the disorder. The syndrome is distinguished from tardive dyskinesia, which tends to be exacerbated by anticholinergic agents.
so.......
