Deven, begin with letter A and give homophones with their meaning. This would make it interesting, difficult and much more challenging.

accessary, accessory

accessary means Someone who helps another person commit a crime.

accessory means Clothing that is worn or carried, but not part of your main clothing

Ok lets move in an alphabetical order..and proceed to the next letter only when we cannot think of any more homophones with that letter..
So a homophone with letter B is:
bite and byte
bite: to cut, tear or grip with teeth.
byte: In computer science, a unit of computer information that is equal to eight bits.

As the pronunciation is a bit different in can and cane..hence they will not be counted as homophones.
