Not hardly! I should probably put something on my web site that gives a pronunciation... I blame my parents. The story is that they were going to name me Lydia and changed it on the way to the hospital. It seems to be pronounced my way in the "Music Man" in the song "Lyda Rose," which I used to sing at the beginning of each school year so my instructors would know how to say it.

Lyda/Lyta and the Swan is pronounced differently, and probably more correctly.
