When choosing a name for a daughter, we pay attention to various criteria. Some want to honor a loved one, others think about a nice sound, and still others want it to be one of a kind. In the latter two cases, Oda may be a good choice. This name has (literally) a rich meaning, and in addition, only a handful of women in Poland have it.
Oda is one of the rarest female names. Which means?
Oda is a name of Germanic origin. It means wealth, property, heritage. It has been known for hundreds of years. In Poland, it was first recorded in the 10th century (this was the name of Mieszko I’s wife). Despite this, when choosing a name for a daughter, we do not often decide on it. As indicated by the data in the PESEL register, currently only 22 women have it.

Oda, apart from being associated with wealth, is also a good choice when we want our child to have a short name. Only three letters make it one of the shortest names in Poland. They celebrate their name day twice a year: on April 20 and November 27. They can be called diminutive, e.g. Odusia, Odetka, Odeńka, Odunia.
Oda – a businesswoman with a big heart
The very fact that it is a rare name makes it unique, but there are more positives. It is said that women who are called this are famous for their incredible resourcefulness. They are hard-working, energetic and ambitious, which makes it easy for them to achieve success at work. However, they do not believe in the “over dead bodies to the goal” principle, because they are sensitive and caring. They value friends and family above all else.
