Evening, FF.

Do you like these, TillY. There seem to be several possible answers for some. I think your Pink answer is right but I'm sure my pool ball answer is valid too. I think this H, I, J, .....N can't be a simple as I being a vowel. Wondered about chemical symbols but that didn't work

[fiction-factory]

Sorry- I meant to start with a "good evening " Tilly

[Tilly2]

I do like these sorts of puzzles, FF. I like the lateral thinking aspect of some of them.

[Davemano]

I is the only one NOT adjacent to any of the other letters on the same line of a keyboard?.

[Tilly2]

Good one, Dave!

[Davemano]

As ff says, there are often several possibilities for 'odd one out'

I is the only one in the group considered to be a 'word' on its own.

[Mara127]

thanks to one and all

[fiction-factory]

Another possibility for odd one out of H, I, J, K, L, M, N is K as it's the only one in the list that doesn't appear in the names of the months of the year
The question does appear in a children's Intelligence Tests book when you google it but I can't access the relevant page

[fiction-factory]

Or J because it's the only one in the list that isn't the first letter of an elemnt in the periodic table
