What does 'odah' translate to?

I can't seem to find out what 'odah' is. The reason I am trying to find out is because I haven't been able to figure out Odahviing's full name. I'm running out of suggestional words to use.

Dragon names are actually made up of three words (usually), so Odahviing is made up of the words od ah viing, or "snow hunter wing," sometimes written as "winged snow hunter." As another example, Paarthurnax is paar thur nax, or "ambition overlord cruelty."
