The construction of a graded naming test that makes the distinction between object and proper names was described. This distinction was prompted by a single case study of a patient who showed a specific naming impairment for a particular class of proper names. Naming vocabulary was highly correlated with other measures of verbal intelligence and the use of the graded naming test as a tool for clinical assessment and diagnosis was discussed. The results of the naming test of the left hemisphere group showed that category-specific naming impairment along the object/proper name distinction is relatively uncommon in any gross form. Object naming was most impaired in patients with lesions of the temporal lobe.
