Some people call nouns the naming words. I find that term misleading. I prefer to say that nouns are words for people, places, or things.
The reason that is a preferable definition is because a common noun is a word for any person, place, or thing. A proper noun is the name of a person, place or thing. Using the term 'naming word' can confuse the difference between the two types of nouns.
