Summary/Abstract: This article develops an approach to the understanding of proper names called The Pragmatic Theory of Properhood (TPTP), which is built on two central ideas: (1) Proper names have no sense (2) T he essence of being a proper name is to be found in reference, not in denotation It outlines the elements of TPTP, its premises and consequences, and proceeds to examine a selection of eight of the issues which remain, or which appear to remain.
