Manilius Personality Type, MBTI
What is the personality type of Manilius? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for Manilius from Kaamelott and what is the personality traits.
ESFP (7w6)
Manilius personality type is ESFP, but this is a mistake made by many other sources, including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. The MBTI also gives a different result for his name – ISFP – but the ESFP interpretation here is the correct one.
The ESFP interpretation is supported by other evidence as well. For one thing, he was very enthusiastic and outgoing. He also loved to study and criticize people's grammar and spelling. The ESFP interpretation also makes sense of his love of food and drink. And it explains why he was so surprised and excited to find out that his boss was a woman, and so enraged when he was not promoted to a higher position. The ESFP interpretation brings out the positive side of the "Manilius" personality type.
An additional reason to suggest that Manilius ISFP is the correct interpretation is that Manilius is a Latin name, and Latin names are typically masculine (see the Latin name article for more information). And Manilius is clearly a man – his name is masculine and his gender presentation was clearly masculine (he wore a man's clothes).
The gens Manilia was a plebeian family at ancient Rome. Members of this gens are frequently confused with the Manlii, Mallii, and Mamilii. Several of the Manilii were distinguished in the service of the Republic, with Manius Manilius obtaining the consulship in 149 BC; but the family itself remained small and relatively unimportant.
