Elements are determined by their number of protons. Nitrogen has 7 protons but usually 7 neutrons as well. What you have here is a nitrogen isotope, an element with more or less neutrons than there are protons. Specifically, this is Nitrogen-15.

For an element to be neutral, it must have the same number of protons as electrons. Thus, the element with 7 electrons is also the element with 7 protons, and is called nitrogen. The specific isotope of nitrogen with 7 neutrons is 14N.

how many protons? it could be ionized, then electrons would not identify element. if unionized its nitrogen-15, making up only 0.365% of nitrogen on earth.
