Things that are funnier when you're tired ...

John and I were batting around names, attempting to (a) firm up a middle name for our daughter, and (b) choose a just-in-case backup name, in case she's a son

It's a good thing that doesn't happen too often. Otherwise there'd be kids named "Backseat" all over the place.

There actually was a car commercial that ran for about a week (before it was pulled) where a 5-year-old in the front seat asks about her name (something pretty but also a city name) and is told that was where Mommy and Daddy went on honeymoon, and they liked the town so much they named her for it.

"So why's her name (glance into backseat at infant) Sierra?" Eyeline-match cut to a shot of the Ciera nameplate on the car's dashboard, and then Mom's enigmatic smile ...

Bulbasaur Mason, General Secretary of the People's Revolutionary Assembly!

An earlier sign we were getting punchy occurred when I noticed 'Justice' at #382 in prevalence in 2004 female baby names, and said,

"Introducing Rebekah J. Mason, your new Supreme Court appointee. Yes, her middle name IS Justice!!"

But...but...Bulbasaur is a level one! It isn't even in the Paras - Parasect evolution chain!
