I just had a flashback to when I worked at Sears during college.  I actually convinced a cute-but-not-super-bright young lady that worked there that naugahyde was actually the hide of the Nauga, a close relative of the Platypus.  She seemed to gain new appreciation for the material after that 😄.  She was adorable.....
