The only monosyllabic word in the English language which comes close to bulb is stilb.
How about MONTH?

If we dont have to stick to English them how about simply translating it to French bulbe. Depending on your accent the English word alb could sound very similar to bulb too.

Culb
That is an obsolescent word which was replaced with 'chimney bowl' I had completely forgotten about it.

Purple
Hirple or curple are the two obvious rhymes or if using slang there is also nurple.

Those are slant rhymes - no fair.  ;D

I'll admit it - I just went to Wiki and picked a word at random from the list on there.  ;)

Wiki is not always right & I have always been interested in languages, my English teacher nearly always had to get the dictionary out to mark my work & he was the head of the department.

culb apparently is a retort used for chemical or alchemical reactions
