Common nouns are words for any person, place, or thing, such as bookkeeper, tent, unicycle, crossroads, month, antelope, city, and innocence. Common nouns are capitalized only when they are the first word of a sentence.

Proper nouns are the names of people, places, things, or titles; such as General Eisenhower, the Tower of London, New Year's Day, the Great Depression, the Battle of Gettysburg, or 'War and Peace' by Leo Tolstoy. Proper nouns are always capitalized.
