Odia — unisex name

What the Data Says About Odia

The Social Security Administration has registered 37 babies named Odia between 1905 and 1974, spanning 70 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Odia currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1974. The name reached its historical peak in 1915, when 11 babies received it in a single year. Odia is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 7 additional births since 1920.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Odia performed strongest in the 1910s, accumulating 21 births during that ten-year window. Across the 4 decades of recorded activity, Odia shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Odia in our reference dataset. These figures derive from SSA's annual national and state-level name files, which include any name appearing at least five times in a given year or state-year; names below that threshold are suppressed for privacy and therefore excluded from the totals shown here. The 37 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
