i always thought buttondown means there are buttons on the collar that you can button down? so if there are no buttons on the collar then its not a buttondown? is this wrong?

What Country are you from?

EDIT: Sorry I shouldn't be so harsh. A button-down is a shirt in which you fasten by buttoning all the way up the front. Has nothing to do with the collar.

Dress shirts with only 2 or 3 buttons towards the top (and short sleeves) are known as polos.
