I don't see the draw to 'odinism'. Odin is a Scandinavian name, most of the people here seem to be anglo-saxons, surely Woden or Wotan would be a more appropriate god to follow. Plus naming it after one god seems a bit monotheistic and makes it look like you are still Christian deep down. How many people ever heard of 'Thorism' or 'Friggism'? Looks like Odin is just a trendy name for god

The names to these gods you state are merely differences in dialect and tradition. They all stem from the Proto-Indo-European religious pantheon.
For example: See the relation from Perkwunos, Perkunas, Perun, Fjorgyn to finally Thor. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto-Indo-European_religion)
