How was the greek nymph echo born?

Echo, in Greek mythology, was a mountain nymph and a daughter of the Titan Gaia, or in some versions, she was the daughter of the god Hermes. She was born with the gift of speech and was known for her beautiful voice. However, her life took a tragic turn when she fell in love with Narcissus and was cursed by Hera to only repeat the Words of others, which ultimately led to her despair and transformation into a mere voice.
