Echu Tirmcharna mac Fergusso (bás c. 556) was a king of Connacht from the Uí Bhriúin branch of the Connachta. Genealogically he is mentioned as the great-great grandson of Dauí Tenga Uma (bás 500) a previous king. Prof. Byrne believes that the early Uí Bhriúin genealogies are fabricated however.[1]

His place in the king lists falls between the reign of Ailill Inbanda (bás 549) and of his son Áed mac Echach Tirmcharna (d. 575).[2] The Annála Tiarnaigh simply mention him as king in 556 and his son's accession to the throne in 557.[3]

A Poem on the Kings of Connaught describes him as Echu "dryflesh", the "choice man", and also as noble.
