The baby name Odeta is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /oʊˈdɛtə/ or /oˈdɛta/ (oh-DEH-tuh or oh-DEH-tah).

Odeta is French in Origin.

Odeta is a feminine given name used in Albania and Lithuania, a regional variant of French Odette. Odette is the French diminutive of names with the Old Germanic element od/ot ‘wealth, fortune,’ cognate with Oda and Otto. Thus Odeta conveys the sense of prosperity or blessed fortune.

Odette rose in France from medieval times and gained wider currency via Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake; Odeta has seen steady 20th‑century use in Albania, the Balkans, and the Baltics, and also appears in Romanian and Croatian records and among diaspora communities. Notable bearers include Albanian figures such as Odeta Nishani, while the related Odetta is known in the U.S. through the folk singer. Variants and related forms: Odette, Odetta, Oda, Odile/Odilia; masculine counterparts Odo, Odet, Otto. Possible diminutives include Odi and Eta.
