Are there any words that rhyme with orange?
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.

There is such a surname as "Gorringe". There was a shop of that name long ago in Holborn, London. The shop of Mr Gorringe. Rhymes with orange.

Instead of saying orange in the first line say reddish-yellow, then you can rhyme with yellow. (Or yellowish-red) Lots of things rhyme with red.

Any English teacher will tell you - there is no word in the English language that thymes with "orange". Close, but no rhymes.
