As a wake word you can have Alexa, Amazon, Computer, or Echo. As a device name, you can have what you like. Go to settings, find your device and make your choice :)

I want alexa to have different voices options, actually. Like in tom tom GPS, you can choose yoda or Ozzy Osbourne, knight rider, LOL. Hopefully that is next.

I believe in the US you can have a male voice (or maybe that's Google Home) but nothing so exotic as Yoda - yet!

I have just changed Alexa wake word to my wife name. https://www.indabaa.com/change-alexa-name/
Still limited to one of four wake words, unfortunately.
