There are two immediately identified ways in which her name is a pun;

First, her Halloween costume is that of a traditional witch, complete with broomstick. Second, there's the relationship between her name and the reference Mrs. Who uses in relation to Shakespeare's "Three Witches" in the play Macbeth.
