I recently learned Alexa can be set to different English accents such as British.  I grew up in the rural south and think it would be great if Alexa could be set to respond to "Miss Alexa" as that is how I'm accustomed to addressing females.  It would be tremendously fun if a bit of a Southern Drawl could be added to the list of available English accents.  An occasional "Ya'll" or other southern idioms would make me feel at home.  My wife responds to any response from Alexa with a "Thank You".  A "You're welcome" would be a nice response.  I hope the Amazon developers see this and can make some adjustments to Alexa's responses and language capabilities

I've said it before I say it again. Celeb voices should be used like in my GPS I use yoda to give me directions and ozzy Osbourne, LOL.

It seems amazon got the idea in their superbowl ad when alexa lost her voice.

I use Brit accent coz they're the awesomest but I'm back to US coz it has all the perks.

I do the same.  Alexa always responds w/the following:
You're welcome
My pleasure
It's what I'm here for
