I would suggest a classical guitar as a first guitar only if you plan to play primarily classical music and it you only plan to play fingerstyle. Yes, it can be easier to play nylon strings. However, nylon strings just aren't as versatile. Unless a player has a very developed right hand technique, they sound terrible when played with a pick.

One other thing about nylon strings: they're always going out of tune. This can be discouraging for a beginner.
