The noun 'seal' is a common noun, a general word for a type of marine mammal; a general word for a tight and perfect closing or something that is attached to a closed container and has to be broken in order to open the container.

A proper noun is the name of a specific person, place, or thing.

It is a proper name if you're talking about the singer. Otherwise, it's a common noun.
