The honour comes less than a year after he won the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his performance in Cold War legal drama Bridge of Spies.
He has also won extensive plaudits for his stage work and his performance in the BBC's adaptation of Wolf Hall.
Stage and television actor Tim Pigott-Smith, 70, award-winning actress Helen McCrory, 48, and 40-year-old James Bond star Naomie Harris are appointed OBEs for services to drama.
McCrory is well known for her roles in The Queen, in which she starred as Cherie Blair, as well as appearances in the final three Harry Potter films and hit TV show Peaky Blinders. She has won numerous awards for her work on the stage.
Harris has played Eve Moneypenny in the two most recent Bond films, Skyfall and Spectre, and her diverse roles also include playing Winnie Mandela in Mandela: Long Walk For Freedom, opposite Idris Elba.
After learning of his knighthood, comic Dodd said: 'I'm very proud, I'm very, very happy and full of plumptiousness. I feel highly tickled.'
And singer-songwriter Davies, who founded The Kinks in 1963, said: 'Initially I felt a mixture of surprise, humility, joy and a bit embarrassed but after thinking about it, I accept this for my family and fans as well as everyone who has inspired me to write.'
