The main cast of characters are cool, but what would they be without the whole host of side characters and niche roles in the films? Without them, we’d just be watching Kevin run around the house making a massive mess of things! So if you've ever wondered which of them you’ve got most in common with, then this is the quiz for you!

The fire alarm is going off, what do you do?

2/10 A dog in a hat

It’s snowing outside, what do you use to keep warm?

10/10

What kind of perfume do you wear?

Airline Assistant!

Nice! Okay, now not many people give this character a second look, even though a few different versions of them pop up in the different films! According to your results, you’ve got the most in common with the airline check-in desk staff! They’re just trying to get on with their day, and frankly, they’ve got bigger things on their mind than if some kid called Kevin is stuck at home! But heck, if you don’t feel like this is you, why not have another try at the quiz and see if you can get a different result?

Cliff!

Nice! You’ve got the most in common with Cliff the security guard from the second film! Now Cliff only appears for a short time - that’s what makes them niche - but they pop up at an important time when Kevin is staying at the Plaza Hotel! Without people like Cliff, who would make sure people follow the rules? And that’s probably why you’ve got this answer! You’re the kind of person that thinks that rules are meant to be followed, not 100% of the time, but 99% of the time!

Parrot!

Amazing! You’re the parrot! Although we don’t know its name, the parrot is probably one of the most goated of the Home Alone Niche characters. It may be a bird, but it always seems to help save the day. It was the parrot that set off the fireworks in the igloo, and helped distract the criminals! The parrot acts like a human, but it doesn’t think like one - and that’s a bit like you! Although you always do the right thing, you’re not entirely sure why all the time!

Kevin!

Boom! You’re not even a niche character! You’re the main character Kevin! You drive the story, beat the baddies and save the day! There is nothing niche about you, no hiding in the shadows (unless you’re about to drop a bucket of grease onto a burglar)! You’re not afraid to stand out from the crowd and that’s what makes you, well, you! But if you think about it, maybe we’re all main characters in our own stories?
