Duke is a proper noun when used as a title for a specific person. For example John Doe, Duke of Anytown, or when referring to that same person later on. It is not used as a proper noun when referring to a group. For example: "The dukes were present at the ball." Unless you are referring to specific people or Duke University, Duke is not a proper noun.
