Hi @faiza_conte, what Rasa version are you using? I just tried it myself on the latest version and everything worked as expected. Did you train your model before executing `rasa shell nlu`?

No, you don’t have to put any training examples for PERSON to your training data. Can you try to retrain using `rasa train` or `rasa train nlu` and try again? Also might be helpful if you could paste the training output here.
