Howdy SmokeDogg,



The page linked below details the numerous ways to manage Faces in Photos. Quoted is the specific portion that details how to remove a misidentified face.



Remove a misidentified face: Control-click the photo and choose “[Name] is not in this photo],” or Control-click the face and choose "This is not [Name]”.
