I don't know how you would go about Randomizing the Names, but as long as the DestinationName contains a name different from the SourceName the file name will be different after the copy completes.
Quote: SourceName: If this attribute is not specified (and this element is not nested under a File element or specify a FileId attribute) then the SourceProperty attribute should be set to the name of a property that will resolve to the full path of the source filename. If the value of this attribute contains a "*" wildcard and the DestinationName attribute is specified, all moved or copied files retain the file names from their sources. Quote: DestinationName: In prior versions of the WiX toolset, this attribute specified the short file name. Now set this value to the localizable name to be given to the original file after it is moved or copied. If this attribute is not specified, then the destination file is given the same name as the source file. If a short file name is specified, the DestinationShortName attribute may not be specified. If a long file name is specified, the DestinationLongName attribute may not be specified. Also, if this value is a long file name, the DestinationShortName attribute may be omitted to allow WiX to attempt to generate a unique short file name. However, if this name collides with another file or you wish to manually specify the short file name, then the DestinationShortName attribute may be specified.
