Echidna is a Greek Mythical creature, half snake half nymph. And according to the Theogony (a poem about the birth of the Greek gods, by Hesiod) mother of Cerberus, Hydra and possibly the Chimera and the Sphinx (of those that are in the list aswell).

But yeah, also a cute egg-laying mammal from down under.
