No, a name is not a pronoun. A name is a noun, a proper noun.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

Examples:

When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (the pronoun 'he' takes the place of the noun 'George' in the second part of the sentence)

Aunt Jane made cookies for the children. She loves to bake. (the pronoun 'she' takes the place of the noun 'Aunt Jane' in the second sentence)

We had to stop for the goat in the middle of the road. It stared at us and finally walked away. (the pronoun 'it' takes the place of the noun 'goat' in the second sentence)
