I need to find an actual word one could look up in a dictionary that ryhmes with the word wisdom, or at least sounds sort of like it. Thank you!

1) There is no PERFECT rhyme
2) words ending with -dom won't necessarily work that well, because a GOOD rhyme should somehow match up with the ACCENTED syllable, at least with its vowel (in this case a short i)
3) Here's a set of "near rhymes" that may work for you, in groups from 'closer' to 'more distant':
Lisbon
prism, ism, chrism, schism, and the name 'Chisholm'
prison, risen
fission, vision, division, revision, decision, precision, excision, incision, collision, derision, elision
religion, pigeon, smidgen
rhythm
bidden, forbidden, hidden
given, forgiven, riven, striven
gibbon, ribbon
More distant still are words ending with -ission/'-ition, of which there are MANY -- for these, see the following link:

Words That Rhyme With Wisdom

Wis-dom contains two syllables. All a rhyme needs to do is match the last syllable or even the end of the last syllable. So pick any old "am" "em" "om" or "um" you like.
