Forename - can anyone confirm? Lidyed Little

On this page, there is a signature of a witness to my ancestor's marriage - Lidyed Little. For the life of me I am not able to decipher what the forename could be - can anyone help?

Thank you in advance.

It looks like Lidyea to me - an attempt at Lydia  :-\

EDIT

For those who don't have access I think this snippet is the one in question

apologies Jen B, I did see you'd posted but the preview didn't show the image
I see Lidyea

so perhaps a version of Lydia?

Could also be a spelling variant of Liddiard?
