| It would be good to see a full sentence so that we can understand how you intend to use the word package - context is important. I found the following by using Google and it sounds reasonable to me - apologies for the cut and paste. Proper nouns (nearly) always start with a capital letter. Caution is needed however, even when you are referring to a specific place or thing. If you use the more general noun rather than the proper noun, this should not be capitalised. Example: “I went to the University of Manchester today” “I went to Manchester today and had a look at the university” Capitalising is correct in both sentences. In the first the proper noun 'University of Oxford' is used. In the second sentence, the more general noun ‘university’ is used and so it is not capitalised.
