I know I'm an ISTJ - I'm ALWAYS an ISTJ. My DH has no idea what he is ... in fact when I asked him if he knew his MB Type he said 'Probably a B...' LOL
I am another one who has taken it a bunch of times. I have had different results almost every time except for the J. I started in college (over 20 years ago) as an ENFJ moved to and ENTJ then an INFJ then an INTJ. I have had the last designation 3 times in the last seven years.

ISTJ
Not sure I could take the test for my DH, but I'd guess he's ESTJ....we're pretty similar in personality except he's a social, take "take charge" kind of person. Complements me well in that regard.

I'm an INTJ with the J/P being tight and the rest being pretty strong. Not sure what DH would be, but he is way more central on I/E than I am (he is far more social and comfortable in crowds, but he also does need alone time to reset).
I'm an INFP but I'm pretty close on the P/J line so in some tests I come up INFJ.
Which is kind of hilarious because it doesn't fit my professional job AT ALL because I work in a field that is dominated by extroverts. But while I hate - actually loathe is a better word - working a big crowd in a room or a party, I form great relationships with people one on one and that is what actually really matters in my job.
And this is still so true: ETJ's should be complimented very specifically. Global feedback (such as "Good job!") does not have any value to the ETJ. They want to know exactly what they did well, and why it is considered good. Be as specific as possible when giving feedback to the ETJ child.
H and I once had a talk about compliments, and I had to explain to him that I need to hear him say, "Thanks so much for dinner. The pork was excellent!" One of the things that's working out great about my current job is that I get specific feedback - great job analyzing X, Y, and Z, and in the future, try to pay more attention to A, B, and C. Perfect for me.
The last 3 of mine are kind of wishy washy depending on where I am in life. I'm very, very solidly an "I", but the others change and I'm never solidly in one. Yesterday I was an INFJ (which I guess is the really rare one). I'm not sure what H is, but pretty much the opposite of me.
