Well, I could see it as a nn for Odette, Odelia or Odessa. Actually, Ottilie / Ottoline could work as well.

Wow. Not only will people think of the dog:

A) They will think she is a boy upon hearing the name (I mean, I hate boys names on girls but this is really bad becasue it's not even Ashley or Madison where a majority of the people with the name are female).
B) Odie= OD= Over dose
C) I know people who pronounce it different ways. OH-dee, oh-DEE, AH-dee, OH-die, etc.

Wow, that's pretty unattractive, imo. My dh is James Odell, Jr. He goes by James (thankfully!) while his father goes by Odell (Ody to his wife). I'm not sure I would have gone out with an Odell. ;-) For a girl, it's particularly unfortunate. Perhaps her full name is Odette or Odessa.

Hmm... maybe I'd like it if it were short for Odette or something.

Wow...

It totally doesn't fit in with Nicole and Kelly. The poor girl! Especially being named after a MALE dog!

Poor kid!

I new a girl named Outi pronounced the same way. She was from Finland. I think she lives in England now.
