Emo stands for emotional.
Emo people are people who usually dress a certain way (usualy dark colors, but dont go as far as goth) and who listen to emotinal music (usualy depresing moody music ex: Hawthorne Heights), and act in that depressed manner.
Emo people are not goth, though they may be easily confused, then again it could also be said that emo is a form/branch of goth.

I always think of it as Emotional, however the common consensus is:
Emo is a slang term used to describe a range of fashion styles and attitudes somewhat affiliated with emo music and its related scenes. As an adjective, emo can describe a style of fashion or music; or a general state of unhappiness or melancholy (as in "to feel emo"). Emo is also used as a noun, often pejoratively, to identify a member of the "emo scene" or someone viewed as fitting the "emo" stereotype.
