Famous ENFP Personalities

ENFP (Extroverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving) is one of the sixteen personality types of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) psychological test. ENFPs make up about eight percent of the population.

ENFPs are charismatic and exciting to be with. They always seem to have something new to explore or talk about.Click To Tweet

ENFPs are extremely creative and versatile people. They love playing with ideas, spinning off new concepts, and discussing them with other people. They are charismatic, sociable, and exciting to be with because they always seem to have something new to explore or talk about.

Sometimes ENFPs can seem scattered and directionless, and they often have no interest in the mundane details of day-to-day life. They tend to need others to keep them anchored and focused. Here are some famous folks who fit the ENFP type.

          Robert Downey Jr. is an ENTP (Personality Club has Iron Man listed here: https://www.personalityclub.com/blog/famous-entp/)

          Both types share a primary attribute in “extroverted intuition” however the ENFP is an “introverted feeling” type where ENTP is an “introverted thinking” type so where an ENFP is more likely to be dogmatic and hold to their own beliefs and opinions an ENTP is more likely to enjoy debate and to enjoy playing “devil’s advocate” or getting emotional responses out of people.

    Nice article ! I have to point out that Ron Weasley is NOT ENFP, he SCREAMS S. I’d type him ESFJ or something. But he’s definitely not NF. Many examples: he cannot grasp Cho Chang’s pain in HP4, an ENFP could immediately empathize! He never introduces new ideas or discusses concepts/abstracts stuff, he is also more concerned about social status than being truly appreciated sometimes and an ENFP is not so much about being famous than about not being ordinary !! Ron never tries to be different, we ENFPs strive for it (cf. Dali ! Robin Williams, Willy Wonka!). In Harry Potter, the MAJOR ENFP is Lily Evans. Though often typed as ENFJ, she is a true ENFP in that she’s quiet but very empathetic (and an ENFJ is empathetic emotionally thanks to their Fe but can never really put themselves in other people’ systems/perceptions), which is why she stays friends with Snape so long! She is also very creative in the way she does magic (using ancient magic through love?) and is not a typical nerd but rather a curious/charismatic child-like discoverer. Also, she truly wants to be different in the way she does magic. She SCREAMS Ne dominant. Ron really doesn’t ! Also, there’s a misconception that ENFP are the life of the party etc. but that’s a minority of ENFPs. We’re actually very introverted extroverts with a voice (like Lily), whereas Ron is a true extrovert but never really has a “cause”, he is just simply there for his friends, truly cares, but without any hidden vision/project. He is an amazing character, but not an ENFP :)

    Who is the most famous ENFP? Jennifer Aniston tops our list. Jennifer Aniston is warm, charming, and great at transitioning between projects. Likewise, independent, charming, and motivating are three words that best describe the ENFP ska princess: Gwen Stefani. Actress Alicia Silverstone has always worn many hats including actress, mother, activist, and cookbook writer. This versatility lends her to the ENFP personality type.

    I am an ENFP who works at a very large and prestigious consulting firm, and one of my pet peeves about ENFP analyses is the myth that we’re not cut out for corporate work. In my experience, that’s simply not true. I’m one of *many* ENFPs at my firm, and many of those whom I know are, for lack of a better word, stars. They’re energetic, forward-thinking, and absolutely on-top-of-things (without the need of a “J” personality to run things). They are an asset to many types of businesses and should not count themselves out.
