Have you ever heard of Lady
Godiva (rode through town naked on a horse with only her very long hair to cover her bits a few hundred years ago to get her husband's attention) or
Godiva chocolate?
And, yah, it is gah-DYE-vah though when I say it it sounds more like guh-DYE-veh. I don't suppose it matters so long as the DYE is in it...
Personally, I wouldn't use it as a name for a child because it has such a strong background in the legend and because it's the name of a chocolate :) lol, it'd be like naming a kid Hershey or Nestle or Cadbury
edit: clarified who Lady
Godiva was
"Chan eil tuil air nach tig traoghadh"
"Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know"
