Found this gem:

Based on this, I concocted a primitive phonetic matching algorithm to generate random animal names. Here are some of Harible’s next stories, which involve two randomly-generated animals being the best of friends:
Furniture Ferret and Conover Crayfish were the best of friends.
Longacre Lion and Diviney Dove were the best of friends.
Satagaj Swan and Pas-de-deux Piglet were the best of friends.
Jenninger Jaguar and Faraha Fox were the best of friends.
