Onto my next dataset 
and there are a LOT of proper nouns.
I have questions about what the appropriate constructions are for a number of examples.
- Firstname Lastname (e.g. “Liz Conrad”) – is this a compound construction with the last name as the head noun?
- What about if there are three names? How does it get broken up? Does it depend on if the person has “two last names” vs. a middle name and a last name?
- Either way will “work” I’m sure but I’m curious what the “correct” analysis would be
- Seattle, Washington – I thought this could be a compound too, but I have the feeling that “Seattle” should be the head noun and in a regular compound I think the second one is always the head(?)
- German Language – compound, or adjective+noun?
- Seattle Airport – would the “airport” in this compound be just the normal noun “airport” or is it treated differently when it’s in a proper noun?
- The National Hockey League – similar to above, this phrase can be built out of “regular” words, but combined they form a proper noun, is there a special treatment of this as far as semantics go? Or would it just be a compound of ‘hockey+league’ with the adjective ‘national’ in front?
