Word For A Aspect Of Character

[spathiphyllum]

Say there is a person with very bright red hair and this is a key feature to their personality and character, would would be the word for this?

Iconic comes to mind but that's less personal to the individual

[JJ109]

I am not sure what you are getting at! Do you mean that certain personality and characteristic traits are typical of a group of people just because they have very bright red hair?

If so then it is a stereotype

Defining?

[spathiphyllum]

for example, say i had a key element to my characteristic that almost defined who i am, it's not iconic but it is to me personally kind of thing?

Sorry it's hard to get my meaning across, if only there was a word to perfectly describe it :')

[spathiphyllum]

JJ, no.. Solely to an individual, it could be a brooch, or a specific type of shoe, or glasses..

Would "trademark trait" work?

[JJ109]

Well, I was almost there

"Do you mean that certain personality and characteristic traits are typical ......."

[Mamyalynne]

I think Spath it also depends on how you are using the word/phrase - you may say to the person 'Your red hair personifies you to me' - to a third party you may say 'Her red hair is her trademark (for example)'.

If you are Gness, 'Treasured memory' would be apt...
