I don't know about a proper adjetive, but I know how to turn a proper noun into a proper adjective. A proper noun is the proper name of a country, organization, corporation such as Great Britain, America, Spain. Proper adjectives modify nouns as in British flag, American schools, Spanish rice. There, proper nouns (Britain, America, Spain) have been turned into proper adjectives. How about the Universe into universal? Queen Elizabeth from the Elizabethan period? Does this help?

Very briefly, when you use a proper noun, for example, Kennedy, to describe another noun, as in Kennedy Administration, grammatically speaking, you are using that proper noun as a proper adjective. It's that simple.
