'oddly-arranged' originates from the combination of 'oddly,' meaning 'in a strange or unusual way,' and 'arranged,' meaning 'put in order or position.'

'Oddly' comes from the Old Norse word 'oddi,' meaning 'point of land,' and 'arranged' comes from the Old French 'arranger,' meaning 'to set in order.'

Initially, 'oddly' meant 'in a peculiar manner,' and 'arranged' meant 'set in order.' Together, they evolved to describe something organized in an unusual way.
