Odeya
Does anyone know the meaning of Odeya? It's borne by Odeya Rush, an Israeli actress, so perhaps it's Hebrew.

Here ( http://www.col.fr/article.php3?id_article=97 ) you can find a pretty comprehensive list of jewish names. Note that the trancription follow french spelling rules. For Odeya you find
Odéya, : Je remercierai D'ieu.(I thank G'd)

ThanksI discovered (on another site) that apparently Odeya is actually taken from a Hebrew phrase in Psalm 118:19 - "Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter them, and I will praise God". Or "I will thank God" or something to that effect. Interesting.
