The Catholic Church isn't certain how many named saints there are. The figure falls between 10,000 and 20,000. In the earliest days of the Church, no lists were kept. Also, there are a number of what are called local saints, recognized in the local diocese but not by the universal Church. This is especially true in Europe where many cities and towns have their own number of local martyrs.
