Noun Identifying Based on The Paragraph Above :

Ø  COMMON NOUN  is a noun referring to a person, place, or thing in a general sense -- usually, you should write it with a capital letter only when it begins a sentence. A common noun is the opposite of a proper noun.

e.g. : Elephant, land, animal, earth, grey, eyes, needle, trunk, tail, white, world, help 

Ø  PROPER NOUN

You always write a proper noun with a capital letter, since the noun represents the name of a specific person, place, or thing. The names of days of the week, months, historical documents, institutions, organizations, religions, their holy texts and their adherents are proper nouns. A proper noun is the opposite of a common noun.
