be honest, is this dumb?

I'm having a teddy bear themed baby shower.  I want to play 1 or 2 games.  Easy, fast.

I was thinking of pritning out cards with famous teddy bears, and they would have to list the right name.  I can only come up with Berenstain bears, Corduroy, Fozzie, Paddington, Pooh, Rupert, and Yogi.  Maybe Smokey, but he's sort of ugly :-)

So, is this totally dumb?  Any other ideas how I could tie in bears, or should I just forget it?

She has a masters to be a reading specialist, so something with books seems appropriate.  I'm not a huge game person but I think she'd want to play one.

What if you expanded the game to be just famous bears?  You could do all of the teddy bears you listed, but also add things like the Chicago Cubs logo, Chicago Bears logo, gummy bears, etc.  I just googled famous bears and found this site:

I think it's a cute idea!  MIL used teddy bears as the centerpieces on the table at my shower.  She put 3 of them back to back kind of in a triangle and tied balloons to them.  And then people (mostly kids) got to take a bear home at the end so I wasn't stuck with 30 of the same bear.
