Naming Scheme Idea

IxxJ: Anthropologist. Man this one is so fucking hard to characterize. In the end I wanted to relate Pi's connection to personal history, as well as culture in the form of the collective unconscious. Here "anthropologist" doesn't refer to the type's typical interests, but as a study of the Pi doms themselves, who (more than other types) view the world through the lens of their own humanity.

So far this is very accurate for me (INFJ). Not so much for the ISTJ I know. Anthropology is too much about the people-side of things.

xNFx: Romantic. Here the word is supposed to evoke a variety of definitions; "marked by the imaginative or emotional appeal of what is heroic, adventurous, remote, mysterious, or idealized", as well as "impractical in conception or plan" displaying its antithetical relationship with ST. Another option would be "Idealist".

Ick, no! the whole reason that anthropologist works for me to begin with is the cold-ish (semi-detached from the heat of spceific cultural frameworks) pattern-searching thing that happens with the INFJ stack. Can't speak for other NF stacks, but this shifts me from my initial response above to "not accurate" in my case.

Interesting thing for you to share no matter what, though.
