There are 3 words that rhyme with it, one being a surname and the other a town name in france. Though not common words they still count. Blorenge and Gorringe, can't remember which is which tho.
You also have sporange which is another word for sporangium, which is a spore casing.

Orange is one of those words that famously has nothing perfectly to rhyme with it. The other one is silver. However, the Oxford Rhyming Dictionary does show both these words as having half-rhymes (such as lozenge with orange and salver with silver).
The principle of a half-rhyme in these cases is quite simple. Whereas a full and stressed rhyme (e.g. hand / stand) or even an unstressed rhyme (such as handing / standing) contain vowels that are common to both words, a half-rhyme like orange / lozenge or silver / salver (technically speaking, pararhymes) has obvious differences between vowels in certain syllables.
hope this has helped clear up the point

Orange does not have another word to rhyme with only half rhyme words some of which have been mentioned in the other answers you have received.

Blorenge, the mountains thing in Wales.
There IS another word, but it's so common that you just fizz out and forget what it was.
Orange? ------
Damn, now you've got me wondering again.

lozenge? apparently nothing in the english dictionary properly rhymes with orange, or purple or other such words...
