I wouldn't use it because it is what Hindus call their holy scriptures.
I would use Vada.

Agreed.
When I see Veda I automatically say VEEDA (the same goes for Vida). But when I see Vada I think VAYDA.

ditto. And all my Hindu friends pronounce it VEEDA.
There is always
Vidya
, which I think is lovely.

But
Vidya
is a totally different pronounciation than
Veda
or Vada...
