 I though it was Odin or Wotan.

 I'd say Wotan for the germanic tribes, Odin for the vikings. Oden for todays swedes.

Similar to the swedish pronunciation, except the w is silent, so I assume the w got dropped over the centuries. The ooo is as in "booo hooo". In icelandic, it's Ódin where the Ó is like the "oh" of every day english.
