There are scores of karate styles, most of them offshoots of other styles of karate. The primary styles as recognized by the World Karate Federation for form exercises are:

Shotokan-ryu

Shito-ryu

Budokan

Kyokushinkai

Gojo-ryu

Wado-ryu

Shorin-ryu

Uechi-ryu

Almost all other styles are influenced by one or more of these. If you're curious, Chuck Norris has an 8th degree black belt in Tai Kwon do.
