No tropes about him as a person.


* ChickMagnet: Towards all Nick girls. In particular, Keke Palmer has confirmed having a crush on him around the time her show Series/TrueJacksonVP started on Nick.
** Girls on Twitter are always trying to get him to appear shirtless.



* JustFriends: With iCarly co-stars Creator/MirandaCosgrove and Creator/{{Jennette McCurdy}} although he had a crush on Miranda when the series first started that was likely influenced by the fact his first two roles (a cut one episode role on Series/DrakeAndJosh, and then Freddie) involved having a crush on Miranda's characters.



* NerdsAreSexy: As Freddie Benson.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Like many teen/young adult stars, he looks noticeably young for his age. As of this writing, he's 21, but could pass for 3-4 years younger.
* RealPersonFic: With Miranda for Niranda shippers, and Jennette for Jathan shippers. In Niranda stories, Nathan's rival is [[Series/TheNakedBrothersBand Nat Wolff]], Miranda's previous Boyfriend. In Jathan stories, TheRival is Madisen Hill, his former girlfriend.

!!This actor contains examples of:
* ChickMagnet: Towards all Nick girls. In particular, Keke Palmer has confirmed having a crush on him around the time her show Series/TrueJacksonVP started on Nick.
** Girls on Twitter are always trying to get him to appear shirtless.
* DoggedNiceGuy: The reason why Nathan got popular, as Freddie Benson, and his role as one-shot character Toplin from Series/DrakeAndJosh was cut from the show after they decided to cast him as Freddie because of it because it'd be the same thing, Nathan's dogged nice guy character hitting on Miranda's not interested female character.
* EarlyBirdCameo: He had voiced the young ape Easy in ''[[{{Babe}} Babe: Pig in the City]]''.
* JustFriends: with iCarly co-stars Creator/MirandaCosgrove and Creator/{{Jennette McCurdy}} although he had a crush on Miranda when the series first started that was likely influenced by the fact his first two roles (a cut one episode role on Series/DrakeAndJosh, and then Freddie) involved having a crush on Miranda's characters.
* MrFanservice: As of Season 5 of Series/{{iCarly}}. A lot of his outfits have definitely been fanservice inspired for the female viewers. His guesting in True Jackson VP where he played a foreign prince handwaved this fact with his Rome-inspired painting.
* NerdsAreSexy: As Freddie Benson.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Like many teen/young adult stars, he looks noticeably young for his age. As of this writing, he's 19, but could pass for 3-4 years younger.
