Lidey is Greek in Origin.
Lidey is a rare English given name, most commonly understood as a modern phonetic variant of Liddy, the affectionate short form of Lydia. Lydia comes from Greek Lydia, an ethnonym meaning "woman from Lydia," the ancient region of western Asia Minor; its prominence in English-speaking tradition stems from Lydia of Thyatira in the New Testament. In some families Lidey also arises as a pet form of Elizabeth, aligning it with the Hebrew Elisheva and the meaning "my God is an oath."
Recorded sporadically in Anglophone use, Lidey has seen modest contemporary adoption as parents favor fresh spellings of familiar nicknames. Related forms include Lidy and Liddy, with root variants Lydia, Lidia, Lydie, Lida, and Lyda; if linked to Elizabeth, cognates include Eliza, Elsie, and Libby. The name’s sound conveys a light, vintage charm while remaining distinctive.
