What is an example of compound proper noun?

Answer 1

A proper noun is the name of a specific person, place, thing, or a tittle; for example:

• Thomas Jefferson
• Tom Sawyer
• Spain
• Sydney, Australia
• Macy's
• Milky Way candies
• Treasurer of the United States, Rosa Gumataotao Rios
• "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee

Proper nouns are pretty much just the names for things. A name, like Clary, is a proper noun. A place like South America is a proper noun. If something is capitalized and the capitalization isn't the only reason it is capitalized in a sentence, then it is a proper noun.
