There arnt many names for dying stars. Actually I dont know any. However, A white dwarf, red giant, which our sun will turn into, a supernova (as many have said, and a red or blue supergiant.

Some old stars I know of that arnt "dying" yet, but will someday, in a few million years or so, are:

Rigel
Betelguese
Sirius B (Its a binay system, and sirius b is a white dwarf)

Off the topic of dying stars, the larger ands brighter they are, the shorter they live. So the sun is about average aged right npow, and will remain our sun until 4.5 billion years, when it will expand into a red giant, then a yellow dwarf, red Giant, planetary nebula, white dwarf, then cool into a black dwarf.

It is a neutron star if not a pulsar. Another possibility could be that it is a white dwarf. Once the fuel ran out, the star lost plenty of mass and heat, and shriveled into a white dwarf – the final stage of star evolution where the star burns out and dies. Neutron stars are the collapsed cores of some massive stars. The stars mass quantifies the type of death star it qualifies as. A massive star quantifies a black hole when it dies and a neutron star qualifies from a mid range star. Small stars quantify white dwarfs.

Again a complex question in the guise of a simple one.
Well - insofar as I know - there are many stages in the life of a star and while passing through these stages it is called many things - some of which are ;-
1. A Red Giant
2. A white Dwarf
3. A neutron Star
4. A Black Hole
Of course it would all depend upon the Chandrashekhars limit which would decide which star would finally die into which stage. Large stars would collapse into a pinpoint Singularity called a black hole till they are reborn ...

I loved Kathy_is_a_n's answer.
My real answer depends on the size of the star. A large star has a different cycle than a smaller star. A smaller star could collapse to a brown dwarf, but a very large star could become a supernova, given the correct circumstances. So, the answer is, it depends.....

All stars are dying; very large ones have a much shorter life span, some only hundreds of millions of years. Smaller ones, like our sun, can last billions of years.

A White or Red Dwarf. Sometimes it will implode into a supernova

Many depending on its initial mass, it may end up as a white dwarf, brown dwarf, neutron star or black hole.
