Yes. Small meteorites hit Earth every year. Large impacts are rare, but it is inevitable that one will happen eventually. However, there is no evidence to suggest that such and event will happen in the near future.
There is no special name for them. Any planet can hit by them. Earth gets hit by them.
Nibiru is a hypothetical planet and will hypothetically hit Earth in 2012 causing hypothetically disastrous results. With no doubt, loads of hypothetical law suites.
a large ice asteroid came form space and hit earth malt with volcano
No, there are not moons or stars ON planet earth, but there are moons and stars around planet earth. == ==
A meteor, nor asteroid would have enough mass so produce the tilt of the Earth. It's not known for sure but a good suspect is the collision that occurred about 4.5 billion years ago, when Theia, a planet about the size of Mars, smashed into Earth. The impact, not only ejected material that created the Moon, but also could have destabilised the axis of the Earth.
We don't currently know when a comet will hit planet Earth.
They will hit Earth if, in their orbit around the Sun, they happen to cross Earth's orbit.
The name of the (proto)planet that hit (proto)Earth in the Giant Impactor hypothesis is Theia.
There is no special name for them. Any planet can hit by them. Earth gets hit by them.

Actually, a planet never hit Earth. About 6 thousand years ago, there was nothing. Then God spoke and there was Earth. So, Earth was created by God."In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth."Genesis 1:1
Scientists think this probably happened and that the "planet" was about the size of Mars. However, it was several billions of years ago and the object that hit Earth is not usually given a name.
Since "Planet X" is entirely imaginary, probably nothing at all.
Yes scientist think that years ago ,before dinosouars were on earth,the planet hit the edge of earth and then started going around the earth as it got smaller
No. At least, not for the next few million years.
NO! And the proof is its already 2013 no hit and earth isnt in the middle of the solar system and many planets are in it so I say planet x isnt going to collide with earth and if it is a meteorite then theres a really big chance planet x hits the huge sun and melts there
The reason Pluto is not a planet is because it is very small, smaller than Earth's moon!
