The chemical name is usually "water" for H2O regardless of how many there are.

In naming a hydrate such as CuSO4.5H2O we first name the compound before the "dot". Here it is "copper(II) sulfate". Then use the prefix for the number of water molecules attached. Here it is "penta" for five. The "dot" tells us that it is a hydrate.

The name of CuSO4.5H2O would be "copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate".
