Best Answer

The hottest star we currently know of is known as R136a1. The nearby R136a2 and R136a3 are only slightly cooler.

Sorry they don't have more interesting names, but they're a very long way away (about 160,000 light years) and despite being among the most luminous stars known cannot be seen by the naked eye.
