What is the meaning of the name Ekho ?

The baby name Ekho is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced EH-koh (IPA: /ˈɛkoʊ/).

Ekho is Greek in Origin.

Ekho is a modern variant of Echo, drawn from Ancient Greek Ἠχώ (Ēchō), the name of the mountain nymph whose voice was cursed to repeat others. The root traces to ἠχή/ἠχέω (ēchē/ēcheō) meaning "sound, ring," giving the literal sense "echo, reverberation." The kh reflects a scholarly transliteration of Greek chi (χ), and also surfaces in Slavic renderings; compare Russian Эхо (Ekho), the common noun for "echo."

As a given name, Echo appears sporadically in 19th- and 20th-century English-speaking records; Ekho is the streamlined modern variant, read today as a sleek, unisex, myth-inspired choice linked with themes of voice, resonance, and remembrance. Variants include Echo (standard English), Écho (French), and Icho/Ichó (Modern Greek transliteration). Ekho thus functions as a contemporary alternative with cross-linguistic appeal. Short forms may include Ek, Koko, or E.
