Etymology
In summary
From Old Galician-Portuguese pessõa, from Vulgar Latin *pessona, from Latin persōna (“mask used by actor; role, part, character”), perhaps a loanword from Etruscan 𐌘𐌄𐌓𐌔𐌖 (φersu, “mask”), from Ancient Greek πρόσωπον (prósōpon). Displaced borrowed persona (retained in dialects of Spain).
