Origin and meaning of Lidia

Lidia comes from the Greek Lydía and means 'woman from Lydia,' the ancient, wealthy region of Asia Minor. In the New Testament, Lydia of Thyatira, a dealer in purple cloth, was the first European converted by Saint Paul. The name thus blends a classical flavour with Christian roots. Common in Italy, Spain, Poland and Eastern Europe, it appears internationally as Lydia — elegant and delicate in sound.
