mirov, gîyanewer

Person/People: Kes (when we write names in Kurdish they are also singular and plural but when we use them in a sentence we make them from singular to plural).

Human: Meriv, merî, mirov (last one is most standardized version).

Animal: Actually near all Kurdish Kurmanji speakers use its Arabic version "ħeywan" or "ḥeywan". Its original Kurdish version is "gîyanewer" or "canewer"
