We call it Awful Waffle, based on a Board Game called Brain Strain. They had "Awful Waffle" as an example.

Is the example meant to rhyme, or is it an example of a subtle category of "words that only rhyme in some English accents"? "Offle Woffle" is somewhat standard American English, while "Orful Warful" would be British English.
