hello! so for the longest time i've been confused as to deciding whether im an INTP or an INTJ. most of the quizzes i took said im an INTP but i strongly relate to INTJ as well! i was thinking, maybe you could help by identifying INTP and INTJ characters? that way maybe i can decide in which character i see myself the most. thank you!💖
Happy to! First, for reference, here are some posts on characters of both those types:

You can also check out the lists under the pages drop-down menu for characters of all types.
To pick some characters that really stand out from those two types:
INTP: Hiccup from How To Train Your Dragon–definitely my favorite example of an INTP in animation. He stays very true to character through both the movies as well, a solid INTP! Alice from Alice in Wonderland is also a good example, though not perhaps as three-dimensional as Hiccup. And Hiro from Big Hero 6 is a good INTP too!
INTJ: Hank from Finding Dory is a good example. There’s also Gru from the Despicable Me movies, and Anton Ego from Ratatouille. For a great example of an INTJ, though not an animated character, is Mr. Darcy from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
Be sure to check out the cognitive functions in depth as well for typing! The functions of these two types are opposites in many ways–while INTJ has Ni-Te-Fi-Se, INTP has Ti-Ne-Si-Fe. This is an excellent description of INTP that also goes in depth into the functions, and from the same website you can also find an equally insightful description of INTJ: https://personalityjunkie.com/the-intp/
I hope this is helpful for you, and thank you for asking!
