The largest number named by the English conventions (billion,etc) is the number centillion (10303 short scale). The numbers googol and googolplex denote numbers mostly usable only theoretically (10100 and 10googol). Mathematicians have created very large numbers for analysis purposes, which cannot be written out except as increasing series of powers of powers (power towers). A notable examples is Graham's Number (many times too large to be written in the observable universe).
