In Germany, people say "Na?" or "Na du?" to which the other person usually responds the same.

It's not easy to translate but I think it's quite similar to the greetings mentioned above. Literally it's something like: Well? You? (and not 'well' in the sense of goodness, but rather questioning)

It's an interesting greeting and as a foreigner seemed very odd at first.

Which part/s of Germany did you hear that in?

Several areas, but mostly Northern Germany. It's also quite common in movies/TVs, so I think it's quite widespread.
