The Sun is the nearest star to Earth.
After that, the nearest one that we know about is called Proxima Centauri. (Actually, on average, alpha Centauri A, alpha Centauri B, and alpha Centauri C - Proxima - are the same distance, but Proxima can at times be slightly closer than the other two).
It's considered at least possible (that is, papers have been published in serious astronomical journals about the possibility) that the Sun may have a very faint red or brown dwarf companion at a distance of perhaps a tenth of a light year, which has so far escaped detection.
