It is a name of Great Honor. I gave it as a third name for my daughter bc her Father’s Mother was Odie/Dessa Richardson. It mean great adventures & great travels from its earliest form. Which I hope she does. There’s also “little Odessa” & Odessa ,Texas. It can have many meanings. To Livia Mother, please read re: The MotherRisk Scandal. I hope u find this? Bc u deserve 2 know u were lied to as well. I did NOTHING wrong but report Terrance B. N I paid for it dearly. I’ll ne er come looking. I don’t want to hurt you or Liv nor Chance. But, YOU SHOULD LNOW THE TRUTH IN THE VERY LEAST. MOTHERRISK SCANDAL…

It was unique yet feminine. And I liked Dessa as a nickname.
Jennifer
I love that the name is super unique and also can’t be pinned down to one nationality or ethnicity – there’s an Odessa in Ukraine and in Texas, and a Facebook search of the name yields women of all ages and races with the name. Also, it’s the female form of Odysseus, and we want our daughter to be a great adventurer.
