What is the correct response English greeting How do you do?

The correct response to "How do you do?" is:

"How do you do?"

It's a bit of a formal, old-fashioned greeting, and the response is essentially a mirror of the question. It's not really a question you're expected to answer literally.

You can also use a variation like:

* "How do you do, [name]?"

* "How do you do, yourself?"

The key is to return the same formal greeting in kind.
