There aren't many words that rhyme with "orange" either, but that doesn't
excuse anyone for pronouncing it incorrectly.  :-)

So which way to you pronounce it? Ah-rinj, Orr-inj, Aw-rinj? Or something
else? :) (I'm an Ah-rinje guy myself.)

I'm among those who pronounce it as one syllable. As illustrated in the following verse:

From the top of a building I tossed it,
   An orange.
On the pavement below I lost it --
   Squornch!

(Well, almost illustrated....)
