In most cases, proper names are not connotative. Sometimes a person is named after another person, a family member, a respected friend, an admired stranger, etc. But the connotation is not obvious unless you are told that a name is connected to someone or something else (unless of course the person's name includes 'Jr.').

Proper names are generally denotative, as they are used to refer to specific individuals, places, or things without implying additional meaning beyond identification. However, some proper names may carry connotations based on cultural associations or personal experiences.
