Haha, some of those generators are hilarious.

My favorite website for generating wierd sounding alien names:

http://www.abooks.com/alien/

It generates names randomly, but they follow specific rules regarding combinations of vowels consonants and syllables. The results are random enough to be totally alien, but still are pronouncable words.

Hit refresh to generate new words.
