A noun can be a proper noun or a common noun.

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

A common noun is a general word for any person, place, or thing.

A common and a proper noun are different forms of noun, not opposites. For example, the common noun building becomes a proper noun as Empire State Building.

The common noun building is not the opposite of the proper noun Empire State Building.
