Nymph in Greek mythology dwelling in a lake, spring, fountain or river (5)

I believe the answer is:

naiad

(Other definitions for naiad that I've seen before include "Aquatic larva of a dragonfly" , "spirit in water" , "Mythological water-nymph" , "Spring nymph" , "Greek mythological water nymph" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
