It's a reference to the legend that King Midas turned everything he touched into gold. I guess the English pronunciation would be close to my-dus, I tend to pronounce it me-das (english pronunciation for 'me', german pronunciation for 'das')

so many references! I like that it has more of a historical meaning than some car repair business.

Tidus is supposedly pronounced 'Tee-duss' (At least according to the voice actors on the Dissidia games!).

I did not know this!

Actually, Gordias (the first Alex) is Midas' father (hence, Alex Gordias being 'xx of the father' and Alex Midas being 'xx of the son' in DF). The 2 are tied to Alexander (the Great) in that Gordias tied an ox-cart to a tree with an intricate know that no one managed to untie (which is where Gordian Knot comes from), until Alexander the Great a couple hundred years later popped over and just cut the thing rather than trying to untie it.

That's where it gets a bit flakey really.. Not only are there multiple versions of the legend/myth, there was also an actual historic King Midas

Not to mention that Alexander being traditionally holy aspected could also allow the 3rd tier to reference the Holy Spirit, and thus the Trinity
