Is the Amazon Echo the device that is known as Alexa? null

Hello, Yes, The Amazon Echo has three different names you can call it (Each is referred to as a 'Wake Word'.) The default is "Alexa" which is why so many of us refer to the Amazon Echo as "Alexa." You can also set her to answer to either "Echo" or "Amazon" in case anyone in your home may be named Alexa.
