Yeah a googleplex is the largest named number now, however it is a completely useless number, a google is 10^100 yet there is not even 1 google elementary particles in the universe, let alone a googleplex at 10^google or 10^10^100. Im not even sure the universe could hold a googleplex atoms let alone sand grains or pennies, were it a container of 218bly in diameter.(somebody elses turn)

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

A googolplex is dwarfed by Graham's number.

The density of the universe would have to increase by a factor of 10999...99920 (where "..." represents 91 more nines) in order for there to be a googolplex elementary particles in the visible space. And then it wouldn't be visible any more.
