He holds fast to his principles and is greatly affectionate toward what other people see as monsters. If you remember, he tends to be a bit private, particularly in terms of his family line. The loyal and sometimes over-sensitive Hagrid is another of our favorite characters in Harry’s world. He’s known for being quick at coming up with solutions, and his enormous confidence is balanced on the other end by bouts of equally enormous self-doubt, such as the time he was found at a loss in Moaning Myrtle’s bathroom. Harry’s self-confident, cynical archenemy is a perfectionist and a natural leader, both traits of an INTJ. You’ll notice that Hermione is logical, inventive, and always quick to correct her friends, but also struggles with a fear of failure that’s also classic of an INTP. Hermione has saved Harry and Ron in more scrapes than they care to count, mostly thanks to her amazing intellect and commitment to knowledge, two main characteristics of an INTP. We see him as an independent and adventurous boy who cares deeply about others and learns more by doing instead of watching other people do things. Harry is one of the most famous wizards in literature history, but he doesn’t really enjoy this fame, which seems to line up with his personality type.Īs an ISTP, Harry is introverted, tends to think a lot, and may not always be in tune with his feelings.
Of course, we’ll start with the namesake character.
