Vast groups of gravitationally bound stars (typically billions of them) are called galaxies. Smaller clusters of stars (up to a few million) may be called globular clusters.
Each galaxy may have a proper name. For example, our galaxy is called "The Milky Way." Our sister galaxy is "Andromeda," after the constellation near which it appears in our sky. (The constellation stars are nearby--at most a few hundred light years away, whereas Andromeda is over 2.5 million light years from us).

When The Milky Way Galaxy and all its nearest neighbors are part of a cluster of over 50 galaxies called the .ng?
The cluster, which contains the Milky way and more than 50 other galaxies, is called the Local Cluster. The cluster has a diameter of 3.1 million parsecs (10 million light years). The Local Group is part of the much larger Virgo Supercluster.
