I consider myself very similar to Pippin, but much of this has to do with seeming out of place and seeing things slightly differently than other people. I am not particularly adventurous, or adventurous at all, although I do like to see things happening, so I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be a Took.
Most of my names have water in them, so I'd probably be a Brandybuck. I guess this has certain advantages--I could live near the river (maybe even know how to swim!) and the Old Forest AND I'd be close enough to the Tooks to spend time with them, probably something I'd very much enjoy.
Besides, I could tweak my name into Belinda Brandybuck, which sounds great, doesn't it?
--Belin Ibaimendi
