Why dewitt rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for dewitt starts at the vowel — the short /ɪ/, IPA /ɪ/ — and ends where the line lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 64 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 44, assonance 10,911, and consonance 907. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Dewitt is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
