Odet

Odet is a diminutive form of the Germanic name Oda or Odilia, which are derived from the Old High German element *uod*, meaning 'wealth' or 'prosperity'. The name has a long history in European cultures, particularly in France, where it was used as a feminine given name. Its usage can be traced back to the medieval period, often associated with noble families.

The name's popularity has fluctuated over centuries, becoming less common in modern times but retaining a classic and somewhat rare charm. It is sometimes seen as a more unique alternative to names like Odette, which shares the same root.
