Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno pochádza zo starého germánskeho osobného mena Audovacar, doloženého aj v podobách Odowakar a Odovacar; jeho stredovekou nemeckou podobou je Ottokar. Prvý člen súvisí s germánskym *audaz („majetok, bohatstvo“), druhý s *wakraz („bdelý, ostražitý“). Meno sa preto tradične vykladá ako „bdelý strážca majetku“.
