Photos identified 2 separate people as one
My iPhone has identified my sister as me so that when we are both in one picture together it only identifies me. How do I fix this?
iPhone XR, iOS 13

You will have to split the merged People album again and separate the faces of your sister and yourself.
See the last paragraph on this help page: Find people in Photos on iPhone – Apple Support (UK)
Find all faces of your sister, that are incorrectly named as you and vice versa and reject them with "his is not". Then rename them correctly.
If you just use the names from the Contact that you have used previously, Photos might just reassign the wrong names. If that happens, you may want to use temporarily not your main Contact card but invent wo different people with nicknames you have not yet used und rename all your own photos and all photos of your sister with the new names. Then wait, if the the faces will remain separated before you switch back to the correct names.
