Detailed Solution

Concept: Concrete nouns are countable or uncountable; singular or plural. It can even be a typical noun or a correct noun.
The name of a selected person may be a proper name yet as a concrete noun. That being the case, the name ‘Harish’ may be a concrete noun.
In option 1, we are given ‘honesty’ too. Honesty could be an abstract noun because it is a character of an individual. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
In option 2, we are given with two proper nouns and both may be concrete nouns too. Thus, this is the right answer.
Option 3 again has ‘honesty’ in it. Thus, this option of nouns is also incorrect.
Option 4 ‘Rewarded’ may be a verb and thus can not be the proper choice. Thus, option 4 is also an incorrect answer.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
