I’m no expert but I’d personally lean towards the XD or the SR9.
That said, have you considered a Glock 17/19, Smith & Wesson M&P or one of the less expensive Rugers?
FYI we have two Browning Hi-Powers and a CZ75 (not B) for 9’s. Next on the wishlist are a S&W M&P and a FN Herstal FNX in .40 and a 1911 (maybe a TAURUS). A Kel-Tec P9 and a Taurus .22 revolver are on the list as well.
I looked at the FNP and FNX but the trigger pull on DA is so high that it really turned me off. Otherwise, that is probably what I would be buying.
