You can't, I'm afraid. Only the International Astronomical Union has the authority to name stars, officially speaking. This is important to know because there are companies out there which supposedly offer you the ability to buy a star and name it after someone. While this is legal, it's not much more than a scam. Any name they put on a star is only valid to their own record keeping and isn't official. You might as well go outside on a clear night, pick out your favorite star and give it a name right there yourself. That is just as valid as "buying" a star name from one of these companies.
