You can have a look at this code

<div ng-app="myapp">
    <fieldset ng-controller="FirstCtrl">
        <select  ng-options="regione.nome as regione.nome for regione in regioni.regionSelector"
           ng-model="selectedRegione"></select>

        {{ selectedRegione }}
    </fieldset>
</div>

Controller

var myapp = angular.module('myapp', []);
myapp.controller('FirstCtrl', function ($scope) {
  $scope.selectedRegione = 'Mike';
    $scope.regioni = {
    'regionSelector':[
        { id: 1, nome: 'John'},
        { id: 2, nome: 'Rocky'},
        { id: 3, nome: 'Mike'},
        { id: 4, nome: 'Ben' }
    ]
    };
});

The <option> is created dynamically and the value for the dropdown is pre-selected by $scope.selectedRegione = 'Mike'; which reference the nome: 'Mike' of the $scope.regioni.regionSelector array.
