    It actually makes it REALLY weird that he named his daughter Marron. But I assume it's because Toriyama didn't pay attention to filler arcs when naming his own characters.
    Oddly enough, he did see them, Bardock was filler until he added it to the manga.

    Bardock was like a really popular OVA though. Not an entire anime arc.

    Actually, looking at the wiki, the reasoning seems to be that Krillin's name is a pun on chestnut. And Maron is also a pun on chestnut. So it was a matter of both the anime studio and Toriyama both deciding to name a character directly related to Krillin the same food pun.
