Yep. Interestingly enough, one of my besties, who is a witch, has Odin as her primary deity, followed by Freyja. Since she also worships Egyptian deities Isis and Bastet, she is definitely Wiccan and not Asatruan, but she values Odin the most of all her deities. Thought you might find that interesting. :)
I do find that interesting. I have had, on occasion, arguments with some Wiccans about the nature of my deities. One friend of a friend of mine, in Portland, told me that she worshiped Odin. We got to talking, and soon to arguing. The core of the argument was that she believed I was worshiping Odin wrong because "Odin isn't a war god. Odin is about peace and calm. Harm none." I said, "Odin means 'War Fury'. His other names include "Shield Breaker," "Spear-Shiver," and "The Gallows God." She then pointed out that Wicca is older than my religion, and therefor I was worshiping wrong. I stopped talking to her.
