what word rhymes with nathan?

Answer 1

If you are looking for a "perfect" rhyme -- in which all sounds from the vowel of the accented syllable to the end match-- there is only one, another name: Dathan.

But you can probably do just fin with a "near rhyme" in which MOST of the sounds rhyme. For the BEST near rhyme, try keeping the vowels the same as well as the final consonant (or else substtitue the closely related /m/ sound), and try to get something CLOSE to the sound of the /th/ -- try the 'dentals' - t-d, the nearby k-g, d p-b, f-v sounds, or the 'sibilants' (s-sounds) -s-z, sh-zh. Of these, the closest matches = t, sh

This would give you the following (the lines below are mostly grouped in pairs --the first in each set is the 'voiceless' sound, which may come closer to matching, since the /th/ of Nathan is not voiced):

*Jason, mason, basin, hasten, chasten
*raisin, brazen, emblazon

*elation, ovation, inflation, incantation, vacation, sensation, operation, station, information, foundation, salvation, explanation, dedication, etc, etc!!
Haitian, crustacean
*Asian, invasion, abrasion, occasion, equation, persuasion, evasion

*Satan, Dayton
*maiden, laden

*bacon, Macon, taken, forsaken, awaken, mistaken, shaken
*Reagan, pagan

*haven, maven, shaven, craven, raven, graven

*(mis)shapen, (apron)
*Laban

Answer 2

Pathan. Depends how you pronounce it though as it is said differently depending on location. The Pathans are a people from Pakistan who joined the British Army.

The Pathan Regiment represents an intriguing bit of the Pakistan Army's early history. As background, the reader needs to keep in mind that traditionally the areas now known as Baluchistan and the North West Frontier Province in Pakistan were loosely ruled, if at all, by the dominant power in South Asia. Following traditional practice, the British left the tribes of these areas alone as long as the tribes left the British alone. When the discussions for the division of India were undertaken, the representatives of the Baluch and Pathan tribes assumed that their continued autonomy would be permitted. When they found that under the rules of Partition they would have to acceede to Pakistan, they withdrew from the discussions. In any case, from the viewpoint of the British and pro-Pakistan negotiators, there was nothing to discuss except the modalities of accession.

The Pathan Regiment was raised on 1 November 1948 as a sop to the Pakhtun people whose ambivalent attitude towards the formation of Pakistan worried their Government. Initially the Regimental Center was located at Dera Ismail Khan. In April 1949 it moved to Kohat. And of course in 1956 it moved to Abbotabad after amalgamation into the new Frontier Force Regiment. The class composition was 50% each of Pathans and the ubiquitous Punjabi Mussalmans.
