ACNH Villager Personality Types

Every villager in Animal Crossing: New Horizons belongs to one of eight personality types. These shape their dialogue, daily schedule, hobbies, and how they interact with other island residents.

Male personality
Food-loving, relaxed, and endlessly cheerful. Lazy villagers love snacking, napping, and telling tall tales. Examples: Bob, Stitches, Zucker.
