Non Catholic Answer

Only God knows ALL the names of His saints. He is the One who has been calling them throughout the centuries. He is the One who has been training them.

We can be fairly certain of some of the names... those who are mentioned in His Word -- Abel, for example... Noah, Enoch, David, Peter, Paul, to name a few.

But, the names of the thousand-thousands of alleged saints who have lived and died throughout history... or have been listed and/or declared by the mouths of men to be saints are subject to skepticism.

Jesus Christ, Himself, tells us that in the Judgment, many people who "thought they were His saints" are in for the shock of their lives.

"Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that Day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU: depart from Me, ye that work iniquiity." (Matt.7:21-23)

Jesus warns us to beware of a great false "Christianity" in the world that will deceive many [Matt.24:4-5]. It professes Jesus' name, declaring that "Jesus is the Christ"... some, perhaps, who will claim to be Christ, Himself -- but they, in reality, "don't do His works."

So, just because some religious denomination of a Christ-professing ilk in this world declares someone [or a group of someones] to be "saints" -- doesn't necessarily make it so.

Jesus Christ, upon His return, has the final say-so in the matter.

We would all do well not worrying about whether or not others are saints... and be better advised to heed the advice of Peter [one of God's saints recorded in His Word, that we can be fairly certain about]:

"...SAVE YOURSELVES from this untoward [perverse, warped, crooked] generation." (Acts 2:40)

In the Judgment, we will all give an accounting of ourselves to God, according to our works. What others have done will be a matter of their own accounting.

"...behold, I come quickly; and My reward is with Me, to give EVERY MAN according as his work shall be." (Rev.22:12)

"...and they were Judged EVERY MAN according to their works." (Rev.20:13)

No one knows, but God, who His saints are. Peter advises each of us to be more concerned with our own works... and whether or not God knows us, individually, as one of His saints, against that coming Day.

Be more concerned as to whether or not your name is on God's massive list of saints.

Click on the link below for a partial list of the saints that we know of. Keep in mind that there are many, many more saints in Heaven whose names are known only to God. There are between 10,000 and 20,000 named saints. To list them here would be impossible.

You have got to be kidding! There are between 10,000 and 20,000 named saints and many others known only to God. There is no way they could all be listed here.
Here is a huge list that should help you. Note that there are numerous saints, and you probably won't find a total and complete list anywhere easily.
