Odo is a name typically associated with historical figures from the middle ages and before. Odo is etymologically related to the names Otho and Otto, and to the French name Odon, and to the Italian names Ottone and Udo; all come from a Germanic word meaning "possessor of wealth". Odo has also been used as a name for fictional characters.
