Every star that can be seen has a designation so that scientists can find it again; however, not every star has a "name." Only major stars have names.
Stars and any other astronomical object are officially named by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). This is the onlyorganization that can 'officially' name any object in the sky. There are "star naming services," but these services do not allow you to officially name a star - they simply allow your name to be published in their organization's publication.
