Name or Person?

Did God's PERSON dwell in the Hebrew temple? Did HE dwell there? I ask because I have always noticed that the bible says "name"

Deu 12:5 But you shall seek the place that the LORD your God will choose out of all your tribes to put his name and make his habitation there. There you shall go,

Deu 12:11 then to the place that the LORD your God will choose, to make his name dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings and your sacrifices, your tithes and the contribution that you present, and all your finest vow offerings that you vow to the LORD.

Is "name" synonymous with "person"?

Look at this

How many persons did they know where there in Acts 1?

Act 1:15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples and said, (the number of names together was about a hundred and twenty,)

Now look at a different version

Act 1:15 In those days Peter stood up among the brothers (the company of persons was in all about 120) and said,

Look at Revelation

Rev 3:4 You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments. And they will walk with Me in white, for they are worthy.

What do you think?
