Odysseus Origin and Meaning

The name Odysseus is a girl's name meaning "wrathful".

Grimes may have named her daughter Exa Dark Sideræl, but it wasn't her top choice. "A girl named Odysseus is my dream," she told reporters. Now that Grimes put it out there as a potential girl name, will parents adopt Odysseus for their daughters? It's already a rising choice for baby boys, more popular than ever before.

The original Odysseus is from Homer's epic the Odyssey. With Penelope in the Top 25, surely it is Odysseus's turn to shine.
