Can you just alter the name to Unknown then put the actual person in the real place?

Jacqueline,

Has this person got children coming down on your family tree. If so, you need to delete them first.

Best Wishes

Jane

As Jane says you have to delete children & spouse first.
Alternatives-
Correct on your family history program before reimporting your tree to GR
Ask GR to do a correction for you
