Etymology

From or related to Medieval Latin Oddara, said by Udolph to be from Illyrian *Adra (water vein), related to Avestan 𐬀𐬛𐬎 (adu, watercourse), Thracian urda (stream), which could ultimately be from Proto-Indo-European *h₁eh₁t- (to breathe), which would make it a doublet of Ader (vein, blood vessel).[1][2][3] Folk etymology connected it to Polish drzeć (to rend, penetrate, tear) as in "break through to the sea."
