Echo Origin and Meaning

The name Echo is a boy's name meaning "echo or sound".

Although this is traditionally seen as a female name, via the classical mythological nymph who pined away for Narcissus until all that remained of her was a disembodied voice — it can also be used for boys. Remember that old song, 'Little sir echo, how do you do?'

Amanda Knox has a son named Echo and a daughter named Eureka.
