Hmm Im a little bit confused with the way to use this word

Doumo~

It can be used to say thank you and hello at the same time right? Is it an informal way?

Ummm i dont know if this is correct... but to say hi my name is buttonz, would it be (spelling is definitly wrong)

Watashiwa nagae buttonz - chan desu?

To my knowledge, どうも (doumo) used by itself is informal. It's a tricky word; I still don't know exactly how to use it.

As for "my name is buttonz", it would be watashi no namae wa buttonz desu. You could also say "I'm buttonz": watashi wa buttonz desu. You wouldn't use -chan, -kun, etc. Other people (close kin) would address you as buttonz-chan.

Ahhhh okay thanks for clearing that up to me... lol have a great day

I see ^^ it can be used for thank you and hello right? It's like my favourite word

xD another favourite would be.. Korewa, korewa ..
