Odometer shortened to Odo

How to order the Odos
The list of historical Odos is getting impractically long, and it is not easy to find the Odo one is looking for. I suggest to divide that part of the list into clerical Odos, royal/noble Odos, and others (if there are any). A little bit more info on some of the Odos would probably be helpful, too.

Also, there are no pages on Odo I, Odo II etc. There should either be made into separate disambig pages, or we could make a section on this page about numbered Odos. Maybe the List of royal Odos could begin with listing the various Odo I, Odo II etc? // habj 15:41, 17 June 2007 (UTC)


 * OK, so I divided the historical Odos into clerical and Royal, and created disambig pages for Odo I and Odo II. Not sure this is the best way to do it though, feel free to change. // habj 08:31, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Another famous Odo de Novelles!
Perhaps you should absorb this Odo de Novelles into your list? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfonso_Fadrique And, as well just why don't you also list every one who could have used the name "Odo?", and its variants? At least you might make a connected entry to them, as you have to the ones that we are told used the name "Eudes?" Regards, 69.92.23.64 (talk) 19:35, 9 September 2010 (UTC)Ronald L. Hughes

Odo of Bayeux / Odo, Earl of Kent
Here we have an instance of an individual who qualifies under both lists. As I understand it, there are others, hardly surprising since the ranks of the clergy were filled by the second sons of the nobility, and political advancement in the one often correlated with advancement in the other. Several clerics left the priesthood to take up an unexpectedly inherited title; Odo of Bayeux (Odo, Earl of Kent) was notorious for indulging in both simultaneously.

My suggestion is to reorder the known Odos from the middle ages back into a single list, combining notable clergy with the nobility. These should probably be ordered by date of death rather than birth, but I'm open on that point.
