There are 35 galaxies in the so-called "Local Group" The three largest galaxies are the Milky Way (our own), and the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies. However, most of the visible stars we see are part of the Milky Way and two nearby dwarf galaxies, the "Small Magellanic Cloud" and the "Large Magellenic Cloud". There are 10 other dwarf galaxies near the Milky Way.

There are approximately 100,000,000,000 galaxies in the visible Universe.

To name them all, at one a second would take about 3,169 years.

So I won't bother.

See related question for some of them.

Collection of Galaxies are classified as Groups or galaxy clusters. Our local cluster is called the "Local Group".

When many groups are bound to each other is it called a super cluster. Our Local Group is one of many groups that make up the "Virgo Super Cluster".

Most galaxies don't have names, they have catalogue numbers. Some do have names, such as the Andromeda galaxy, or the Greater and Lesser Magellanic Clouds.

Galaxies are grouped into galaxy clusters, these, in turn, are grouped into superclusters.
