Shouldn't Halo 3 ODST have been called Halo 2 ODST becuase the events happen during Halo 2? Or just called Halo ODST becasue it happens during none of the games?

?

It's a Halo 3 expansion.

It has Halo 3's multiplayer, so naming it Halo 3: ODST would make the most sense.

It expands on the Campaign.

Just think of it as Halo 3: Almost There. Or Halo 3: Side Story.

I don't understand your point. It uses Halo 3's Matchmaking, Forge, Theatre, etc., so it should be called Halo 3: ODST. You can even play with people on Halo 3 with the ODST disc.

If it's hard for you to say Halo 3 ODST, just think of it as a prequel of Halo 3. It gives a little back story to the events that unfold and then result into the story of Halo 3.

The game has all of the same features as the Halo 3 disc with a new campaign and a new game mode. Just because campaign doesn't relate to Halo 3, doesn't mean the game disc itself doesn't revolve around Halo 3s content.
Ex. Same maps. Same armor perms. Same Multiplayer. Same custom games. Same forge. Same theatre. Etc. etc..

That's like saying Halo 3 had nothing to do with Halo 2.

How would you know? Did you play it yet? There are many ways that it could relate to the Halo 3 campaign. Just because you hear that it takes place during the events of Halo 2 doesn't mean it can't help reveal more about Halo 3.

Exactly we only know where it begins but we do not know where ODST ends... Otherwise what would be the point of playing

The game starts in Halo 2 and most likely ends before, after or at the same time as Master Chiefs halo story ends.

Its an expansion, theres no need to get technical about it, and besides the more halo the better!
