That's right. When you start learning kanji and typing them, you will need to know the "correct romaji". But if you know the correct kana, that automatically means that you know the "correct romaji". The earlier you abandon romaji, the faster you will learn Japanese. Romaji is addictive, isn't it? But things addictive are often bad for you.
To type the name of my city, you must type "Toukyou" and change it into kanji. Typing "Tokyo" won't get you anywhere near 「東京」.
As for my username, I've never written it in hiragana. But if I had to, I'd write it なごやんきい. I usually write it in katakana, which is ナゴヤンキー. So before you learn katakana, you can just write it in the alphabet.
Finally, "Thanks a lot, Nagoyankee." is 「なごやんきいさん、どうもありがとう。」. I don't mind Nagoyankeeさん. Remember when I mentioned "みなさんこんにちは"? We put the name/title first most of the time, which is the opposite of what's considered normal in English.
