Excellent! As a child I hated that name it sounded so old and stuffy As I grew the name grew on me. When my mother gave me the book" Lydia the Seller of Purple" I was still too young to appreciate it. When I read of lydia in the Bible my heart opened up to how beautiful a name it truly was by that Lydia's faith in God and her wonderful hospitality. This meaning is by far the best description of Lydia
