  1. Over 30 galaxies, most with names with letters and numbers. But one notable exception, Andromeda.


  2. Andromeda (M31), the Milky Way, the Triangulum (M33), the Large and the Small Magellanic Clouds.

    Dwarf galaxies with names (sort of at least) include the widely disrupted Canis Major Dwarf, and the dwarf galaxies in Ursa Minor, Draco, Carina, Sextans (dwarf), Sculptor, Fornax, Leo I, Leo II, and perhaps the Phoenix Dwarf, and Leo A.

    But see the link for the more complete story and list.  seds is a great resource.
