serious question: why do many (most?) people share 2 grammatical versions of their pronouns, like he/him, she/her, they/them?

Why choose these arbitrary ones, instead of only the first one, trusting people know how to decline them? Or use all declensions like he, his, him or they, their, them?

genuinely curious how this developed, since I was kind of late to the pronoun party.
