!!Tropes
* BestFriend: Began her movie career playing these roles in {{romantic comed|y}}ies to the leading lady. She noted in a ''Hollywood Reporter'' interview that she had this in common with Creator/JudyGreer, who she often saw in the waiting room for many romcom-best-friend auditions. Then she recalled her husband joking that she and Greer should star in a ''Film/RosencrantzAndGuildensternAreDead''-type of romcom parody film where Creator/KateHudson makes walk-on cameos for relationship advice.
* CharacterTic: Her characters will touch their hair at some point (Examples [[https://archive.ph/W9dxC 1]], [[https://archive.ph/Y9e9I 2]], [[https://archive.ph/pmgeG 3]]). Hahn revealed it's a tic she has in real life at ''The Hollywood Reporter Roundtable''.
* TheDanza:[[invoked]] Katherine in ''Girls''.
* HollywoodMidLifeCrisis: Subverted.
** A few of Hahn's characters' mid-life crises are more fixated on getting out of boredom now their children are older. Both Carla in ''Bad Moms'' and Eve in ''Mrs. Fletcher'' are single-parent mothers who use freedom from their teenaged sons to act out: Carla (who already had a reputation) misbehaves with her uptight friends, whereas Eve binges internet porn and suddenly has beckoning sexual fantasies outside her comfort zone.
** ''Private Life'' shares Rachel's mid-life crisis with her husband due to the LawOfInverseFertility.
* InkSuitActor: She's mentioned how shocked she was when she discovered Olivia in ''Into the Spider-Verse'' looked a lot like her during the animation development.
* IronyAsSheIsCast:
** Played with. Hahn has notably played rabbi Raquel in ''Transparent'', despite being raised Catholic, but (as she's pointed out) she's been "a lot of Rachels and Raquels" in her career, even though religious/cultural background is not implied or mentioned. Scott Feinberg jokingly called her an "honorary Jew" because of this.
** ''Private Life'' starred her and Creator/PaulGiamatti wanting to conceive a child. Hahn's filmography beginnings flited between romcom lead's friend and pregnant woman.
** The "Kathryn Hahn character" type (see PersonAsVerb) is wildly different to most of Hahn's actual filmography, which shows variations of AwfulWeddedLife, quirky {{satellite character}}s, horny women, and smug antiheroes, among other things.
* MessyHair: Hahn's lightly frizzed hair is a trademark of hers. Before mainstream professional acting, she worked as a hairdresser receptionist, and the staff gave her a hairbrush as a present!
* PersonAsVerb: According to a ''Vanity Fair'' [[https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2021/05/whats-so-enchanting-about-kathryn-hahn interview]], Hahn debuting in ''How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'' turned her into a "think" among Hollywood screenwriters, a variation of {{typecasting}} without Hahn even being cast.[[note]]In fact, when developing ''[=WandaVision=]'', the showrunner and director had Hahn cross their minds when casting Agnes, and their prayers were answered when Hahn happened to be visiting Marvel Studios one day.[[/note]] A "Kathryn Hahn character" appears to be a SociallyAwkwardHero who is EndearinglyDorky to the other characters, considering the example the article uses is:
-->'''''Vanity Fair'':''' "Enter CASSIE. She's a whirling dervish of nervousness, and it somehow makes her super attractive. Think: KATHRYN HAHN."
* PromotedFangirl:[[invoked]] A variation. Creator/RobLowe was her CelebrityCrush when she was a teenager, and not only got to act with him in ''Parks and Recreation'' years later, but their characters had a fling.
-->'''Hahn:''' I could not believe [Lowe and I] got to have an onscreen romance [...] If my 13-year-old self had known that this was in my future, I could not have worked!
* ThoseTwoActors:[[invoked]] Has worked with good friend Creator/PaulRudd four times (coming on five, as of 2021).
