I’ve been playing the Japanese version of animal crossing and im noticing that Tom Nook ends a lot of his sentences with だなも. Examples: 失礼しましただなも and 初めさせていただくだなも!I have tried to google what function this combination of particles serve but I cannot find an answer. Is this just a quirk of Tom Nook’s speech pattern or is there some actual meaning behind these particles?

It means that you’re a tanuki in an Animal Crossing game. Nothing else to it, just their speech tic.
One of the reasons it’s not a good idea to lean Japanese from media (not saying you’re doing so, OP). Too much idiosyncratic speech.
It means the same as “だってばよ” in Naruto. Just a speech tic
Well, it’s just his speech pattern, but it “means” something still, it wasn’t just arbitrarily chosen like adding random particles to a sentence like 始めさせていただくだやけぷまにを! or something. He’s basically inflecting “and that’s that” or “and that’s the case” to those sentences.
