Eowyn is an ISTP

See here for my Éowyn essay. For clarification on how the eight functions work, see here.

Dominant Ti: Éowyn is skeptical and holds to 'logic', but it is personal and subjective logic based off of her Fe's cultural values – she rejects and rebels against her cultural gender role (staying at home), but she genuinely believes in her culture's value system (staying at home is bad, fighting is good).

Auxiliary Se: Éowyn is very physically active, she loves sensory activities (either fighting or healing), and she tends to live in the moment.

Tertiary Ni: Éowyn is able to conceptualize what she needs to do in specific situations (like how to sneak off with the army).

Inferior Fe: Éowyn's value system is clearly defined by her culture. She genuinely believes in the toxic masculinity she was raised with. After meeting Faramir, she realizes his value system is healthier and adopts it as her own.
