My name is nita. Is name a noun?
certainly.'name' is a noun.
Name can be a noun, because nouns are person, places and things.
It is, just like an organazation is a noun. It do not need to be able to touch it, for it to be a noun. And its not a verb, because you cant "do" a name, but you can have it, wear it and use it.
Name is a noun and Nita is a proper noun.
