Meaning:Woad hill; Dairy maid
Odie is a gender-neutral name of primarily British origin with a playful, mischievous sound. An endearing nickname, Odie springs from Odell, which means "woad hill." The name is rooted in the village of Odell in Bedfordshire, its meaning whispering of the surrounding yellow blooms that produce the deepest indigo dye. Odie is also a last name in itself, flaunting an occupational background with the meaning “dairy maid.” Unchained to any one origin, Odie could be a form of Odessa, Odella, Odo, and more. Sure to be underestimated, Odie holds within it vibrancy, potential, and bountiful surprises for those willing to look deeper.
