Continuity mistake: The episode includes Odo as one of the people who is still alive after "200 years." However, in later seasons, it is revealed that Odo was infected with the morphogenetic virus by Section 31 quite a while ago. And given that in those later seasons, he is deteriorating and dying, there is no possible way that the "Future Odo" from this episode could've survived 200 years since he likely wouldn't have survived more than a decade since this episode if they became trapped back in time.

Chosen answer: No. He's given his name, that's all. Nothing there that might lead to a paradox. If he's gone into detail about his time travelling, that might cause an issue or two, but simply stating his name does nothing.
