I will assume that you mean Apostles since all "True" Christians are disciples of Jesus.
And there were actualy 14 Apostles: Surprised????
THE FIRST TWELVE:
Matthew 10:2-4 (NLT)
2 Here are the names of the twelve apostles:
first Simon (also called Peter),
then Andrew (Peter’s brother),
James (son of Zebedee),
John (James’s brother),
3 Philip,
Bartholomew,
Thomas,
Matthew (the tax collector),
James (son of Alphaeus),
Thaddaeus,
4 Simon (the Zealot),
Judas Iscariot (who later betrayed him).
After the death of Judas Iscariot a "New" apostle was voted in to take the place of Judas.
His name was MATTHIAS
Acts 1:23-26 (NLT)
23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias.
24 Then they all prayed for the right man to be chosen. “O Lord,” they said, “you know every heart. Show us which of these men you have chosen
25 as an apostle to replace Judas the traitor in this ministry, for he has deserted us and gone where he belongs.”
26 Then they cast lots, and in this way Matthias was chosen and became an apostle with the other eleven.
And of course if you are a Christian (even if your not) you probably know the story of "Paul" being struck blind and Jesus coming to him.
It is made very clear through out the New testament that after this experiance "Paul" too was considered an Apostle.
i.e.. Romans 1:1 & Acts 26:12
Thus there were 14 Apostles and All believers are disciples or another word used is Saints.

It lists them in Matthew. Simon and Andrew were first.
Next Jesus called James and John, then Philip, Nathaniel (also called Bartholomew), Matthew, Thomas, and James, son of Alpheus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas, son of James, and Judas Iscariot. Then Matthias replaced Judas Iscariot.

As indicated in the Bible. Read the New Testament. Try the Gospel of Matthew.

Mathew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Timothy, Thomas and many un-named others not mentioned in the bible. I'm not sure if Judas should be counted here or not. Steven was stoned, but I think he should be counted as well.
