Words that rhyme with Lolita
Treated as an unguarded everyday word, lolita is also a three-syllable sound-shape on the flat /æ/ — one that ends on an open vowel. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: there are essentially no strict perfect rhymes, no family rhymes survive the strict family test, the assonance pool is the one that won't run out. Take the lyric role separately and it's an unguarded everyday word. The slant-by-vowel column will carry you a long way past the strict matches.

Why lolita rhymes the way it does
Pull lolita apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with a low-front /æ/ (/æ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1114, assonance 5,615, and consonance 0. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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. Lolita is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
