Echo is the Roman name. It was transliterated (when you replace the Greek sounds with their equivalent Latin letters) from the Greek Ἠχώ. It's similar to how the Greek and Latin words for Apollo are the same, just that the Greek is spelled using the Greek alphabet. Sometimes the Romans didn't have original equivalents, so they just used the Greek name.
