History

Kodisjoki was first mentioned in 1504 as a part of the Laitila parish. Its name is derived from a dialectal word kodiksin/kodismaa<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> referring to a garden or a small field next to a house. The name of Kodjala in Laitila has a similar etymology. Kodisjoki became a separate municipality in 1896, but due to its small size, it was still ecclesiastically subordinate to Laitila.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Kodisjoki was consolidated with the town of Rauma in 2007.
