Title inspiration[edit]

I just watched an episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents", titled "Design for Loving". The teleplay was written by Ray Bradbury, based on his short story, "Marionettes, Inc." I had never heard of this story before, but seeing it printed on the screen, it had a look of familiarity, and a thought occurred to me. Has it ever been speculated that the title of the Pixar film "Monsters, Inc." was inspired by Bradbury's short story?
