I think "odd" is a very odd word

I was just looking at a (programming) question on Stack Overflow that was asking for a function that always returned "odd" numbers (I’m sure s/he was referring to odd vs. even numbers). But my mind is now stuck on how the word "odd" is somewhat paradoxical, as "odd" numbers really aren’t "odd" in the sense of something unusual. I would like to write clearly and unambiguously about odd numbers, but the word itself is holding me back…

Is there a solution?
