See the following from Change message notifications on iPhone - Apple Support


Mute one conversation

You can stop getting notifications for a conversation while you continue to receive its messages.

  1. Open the Messages app  on your iPhone.
  2. In the Messages list, do one of the following:
    • Swipe left on a conversation, then tap .
    • Touch and hold a conversation, then tap Hide Alerts.


If that isn't the issue, see the "Change the notification sound for certain people" section of the same Apple support article.
