Go to the local guitar shop, and talk with one of the guys behind the counter. The people who work at these places are, usually, working musicians themselves, and it is a point of honor (although unspoken) amongst musicians to never steer someone wrong who is wanting to join the family.
They will ask you a few questions about what you want out of the guitar, what type of music you want to play, how much you have to spend, and such as that.
They will then be able to point you to the right guitar for your desires. They will not automatically steer you towards the most expensive guitar, because that is not what's best for you.

The Fender Standard Stratocaster is a good classic versatile electric guitar. They usually run for about $350 to $400 bucks. For the price it's a good guitar. It just depends how much your willing to spend.
Electric guitars are easiest to start out with because the string tension is light and easy on the fingers and the neck is slim and easy to move around. However, they are also the most expensive kind of guitars. There are beginner packs that come with a guitar, a small amplifier and several accessories including a starting booklet. You can find those for under $200.

From experience there is no specific guitar to buy when you are starting out- it's just best to go down to your local music store (I prefer second hand) and sit down and try out different guitars to see how they feel and sound.
I've found (for me at least) that if I get a guitar that "feels right" and "sounds right" I have much more incentive to continue playing than if I just get "a guitar".
Hope that made sense and helped.

Quite honestly, the Estaban guitar package is really excellent. I got one two years ago for a grandson who thought he wanted to play. It came with guitar, case, amp, picks, strings and instuction for under 200. Just type Estaban into your search. Tere are plenty of styles to look at. My grandson has several guitars now and plays very well.
