INFJ (6w5)
Niles Crane personality type is INFJ, but that's not why we're comparing them.
Niles and Daphne were both raised by parents who were members of the same (and extremely exclusive) club. Their interests and personalities align and they share a love of science and logical thought.
But there's something else: Niles and Daphne are both very young, though they've been married for several years.
Niles is the only child of the Crane parents (though he's technically adopted by them). By contrast, Daphne was always a member of her parents' social circle, and was almost like a daughter to them.
When they first met, Niles was fascinated by Daphne — he just couldn't figure out why she was so interested in him. Daphne felt the same way about Niles and was fascinated by his intellect and how he saw things.
At first, they were just friends, but as the series went on, their relationship became more intimate. By the time of "Nimoy" (season four), they were engaged and Niles even lived with Daphne's family as a guest.
Of course, this wasn't a happy story.
Niles Crane is a fictional character on the American sitcom Frasier, a spin-off of the television show Cheers. He was portrayed by David Hyde Pierce. Niles is the younger brother of Frasier Crane. Pierce was hired because Frasier producers saw his headshot and commented on how much he looked like a young Grammer. Unlike Frasier, part of whose background comes from Cheers, Niles' background is established over the course of Frasier. Pierce has said that his character was originally explained to him as "what Frasier would be if he had never gone to Boston and never been exposed to the people at Cheers." It has been suggested that "the difference between the brothers is that Frasier knows they're being pretentious; Niles honestly doesn't".
