Words that rhyme with Felicity
Approached as a word the song builds a room around, felicity is a four-syllable core sitting on the tight /ษช/ โ which opens out at the end. Place-words like this make the song habitable. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: perfect-rhyme territory is narrow, the family column is blank, the assonance pool runs into the thousands. Take the lyric role separately and it's a concept word. The interior life of any lyric on this word is going to be the assonance list.

Why felicity rhymes the way it does
In our engine, felicity registers as a four-syllable word on the clipped /ษช/ (/ษช/) that leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 10 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 70, assonance 12,515, and consonance 431. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. 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. Felicity is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
