The word 'himself' is a reflexive pronoun, a word that 'reflects' back to its antecedent.
A predicate noun, also called a predicate nominative is the noun, noun phrase, or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates or stands for the subject.
The pronoun 'himself' can function as a predicate noun, for example:
"After a good night's sleep, Jack will be himself again."
But the pronoun 'himself' is not specifically a predicate noun, it can function as other parts of speech; for example:
"Jack saw himself in the mirror." ('himself is the simple, direct object of the verb 'saw')
"Jack made breakfast for himself." ('himself is the object of the preposition 'for')
