Hare is an unincorporated community in Williamson County, Texas, United States.
It is uncertain where the town's name originated from. Two theories are that it is named from the large amount of rabbits in the area, and that the town was nicknamed "Fuzzy". Other sources say that it was named after pioneers whose surname was Hare.[1] [2]
