Did you consider something like {mykcrib} for McBear?
Keeping the meaning of the word, rather than its sound, would
seem to be more important in cases like this one, especially in a
story for children. For example, Scrooge McDuck is called
Rico McPato in Spanish.
(Of course, the prefix myk- could just as easily be confused as
meaning "hamburger made of ..." rather than as surname maker.)
