📖 Acerca de Lidia
Lidia es la forma española, italiana y polaca de Lydia, que toma su nombre del antiguo reino de Lidia en el oeste de Asia Menor — la civilización a la que se atribuye la invención de la moneda hacia el siglo VII a.C. En el Nuevo Testamento, Lidia de Tiatira era una comerciante de tela púrpura que se convirtió en una de las primeras europeas bautizadas por Pablo, dando al nombre resonancia tanto comercial como espiritual. Utilizado durante mucho tiempo en la Europa católica, Lidia ha sido llevado por figuras extraordinarias como la leyenda del patinaje de velocidad Lidia Skoblikova (seis oros olímpicos), la chef Lidia Bastianich, la novelista portuguesa Lídia Jorge y la cantante pop mexicana Lidia Ávila.
