The word 'Lydia' is of Greek origin and it was the name of a region located in the west coast of Asia Minor.

But popularly the word is being used as a feminine name, usually in English and German languages. The reason for the word being used as such is that it is used in the New Testament for a woman who was converted by Saint Paul.

In the Greek mythology the place Lydia got popularity because the princes of the kingdom named 'Omphale' has many stories related to her. It is believed that Heracles who later married Omphale was responsible for the enslavement of the Itones and also for the killing of Syleus.

The language spoken in the place was also called Lydian language and considered as a member of the Anatolian language of the Indo-European family.

I also wanted to know the answer to this and didn't have a clue what a "purple" was, apparently it is a garment that has been dyed purple! It is thought that "Lydia" would be dressed in purple and was seen (in the biblical sense) to be a great business woman by god himself! it is thought that the garments were dyed in the city of Thyatira, renowned for dying garments purple.

"Purple" refers to the dye made with murex shells, and the finished cloth, which was expensive. The dye process takes color from thousands of murex shells and boils it down into the rare natural purple dye that was so valued by nobles of the day. A kingly robe was typically purple. The Biblical Lydia, as "a dealer in purple", would have been one wealthy lady!
