Head Rhyme

Entertainment / Literature / Head Rhyme: Another term for alliteration--especially alliteration of consonants at the beginning of words, rather than alliteration of internal consonants within the bodies of words. The name is something of a misnomer, since 'head rhymes' usually involve no rhyme at all! See discussion under alliteration.
