Sorry, there is no word Wodan in Slavic.

Voyevoda is a Slavic word, in its basic meaning - military leader, which was later extended to mean leader, chief in general. This semantic extension is quite common for different languages. 

Please be very cautious with folk etymologies you use. Of course, it is necessary to forget Stalin's legacy, but do not sacrifice science to politics
