Dictionaries do not agree on whether 'next' is a noun or a pronoun. The definitions as a noun or a pronoun are much the same:

  • The pronoun 'next' means "a person or thing that immediately follows another person or thing".
  • The noun 'next' means a person or thing "coming immediately after the present one".

Dictionaries do agree that the word 'next' is also an adjective, an adverb, and a preposition.
