Best Answer

Her name is Echo. She lost her voice when she tried to protect her loved one called Narcissus who only cared about his looks from Hera's vengeance. Narcissus was turned into a flower by Hera. Zeus, later took pity on Echo and blessed her by saying that whenever anyone would shout out, then Echo would repeat back those words.
