Were the bodhisattvas people that achieved enlightenment and then were deified or are the bodhisattvas like deities of a buddhist pantheon?

Bodhisattvas are people who are one step away from achieving nirvana, but they stay that little bit away voluntarily to help others achieve enlightenment out of kindness.

Then why is Guanyin, a bodhisattva, called the "Goddess of Mercy." Is it just a title? Like, she's not actually a goddess.

Were any bodhisattvas real people? Like do we have accounts of their buddhist journey?

It's just a title. The current Dalai Lama is also a bodhisattva, and he is referred to as "His Holiness," even though he's mortal.
