In Japan, if you add the -ko to the end of someone's name, it signifies that you are a couple and that you love them. Usually, guys use it (at least from what I've seen).

Basically what she said. Usa is sort of a shorter version of Usagi, and used as a nickname. Then, add the "ko" for the reason mentioned before.

'ko' is also added for baby, eg. neko = cat, koneko = kitten Effectively, Mamoru is calling Usagi 'Baby bunny'

Serena-chan01 How come they call her "Buns" and "Bunny" in the manga's then?? Because "Usagi" means "Bunny". I'm pretty sure they use dub names in the manga(I'm not sure, because I've only read one volume), so they give her real name as "Serena" and nickname her "Bunny".
