Advisory Circular 20-27F Appendix A lists the FAA definitions relevant to certification and registration of amateur-built aircraft. Here is the definition of a “person”:

 

“Person. Section 1.1 defines person as an individual, firm, partnership, corporation, company,

association, joint-stock association, or governmental entity, including a trustee, receiver, assignee,

or similar representative of any of them.”

 

Anyone, including any legal entity such as a corporation, LLC, group of loosely-associated anarchists, etc., can register an amateur-built aircraft, but there must be a human being listed on the registration as the main point of contact.
