Find your Christmas card personality

Everybody has a Christmas card personality. Some people pick the funniest pun they can find, some go for something a little cheeky, and others like a warm, traditional card with a proper message inside. This free quiz asks seven quick questions about how you do Christmas and tells you which card you'd be.

It takes about a minute, there's nothing to sign up for, and you can share your result with friends and family to see what they get. It's a fun thing to send round the family group chat in December, or to try with colleagues before the office Christmas do.

The five Christmas card types

The Funny Christmas Card loves a pun, a cracker joke and a terrible festive jumper. The Cheeky Card pushes it just far enough and is best kept away from Nan. The Family Classic is warm and traditional, remembers everyone's names and always posts on time.

The Best Friend Card is full of in-jokes that nobody else would understand, while the Office Legend organises the Secret Santa, brings mince pies on the last day and gets their card passed round the whole team. Most people are a mix of two or three, so try the quiz again and see if your answers change.

How the quiz works

Each question has four answers, and each answer points towards one of the five card types. When you've answered all seven questions, the quiz counts up which type you picked most often and shows you your result. If two types are tied, the one you chose first wins.

There are no right or wrong answers, so go with your gut. Nothing is saved, and nobody sees your answers unless you choose to share your result.

Using your result to choose cards

Your result is a good starting point when you're picking cards this year. If you're a Funny Card, you'll probably enjoy sending pun-filled cards to friends and family who share your sense of humour. If you're a Family Classic, a card with room for a longer message might suit you best.

It's also worth thinking about who you're sending to. A cheeky card that's perfect for your best mate might not go down so well with your boss, so many people buy a few different styles. Your result links straight to a matching range of cards to help you get started.

Make it a party game

The quiz works well as a quick icebreaker at a Christmas party. Ask everyone to guess which card type each person will get, then have them take the quiz on their phones and reveal the results together. Whoever guesses the most right wins a mince pie. It's a fun way to start conversations, especially in a group where not everyone knows each other.
