The definition of "person" from Etymonline:
From mid-13th century, as "one of the persons of the Trinity," a theological use in Church Latin of the classical word.

Meanings "one's physical being, the living body" and "external appearance" are late 14th century.

In the early church, the term "person" was used to describe the distinct and individual expressions of the Godhead within the Trinity. This concept was developed in response to theological debates regarding the nature of God and the relationship between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Instead, it referred to the individual existence of the divine nature within the Trinity. The three persons of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit).
