Sun.
I dislike when people call it "Sol," similarly when people call Moon, "Luna" or Earth, "Terra." I also dislike when people say [i]the[/i] [u]e[/u]arth. IAU recommendations refer to these celestial bodies as proper nouns, and as Sun, Earth, and Moon respectively. You wouldn't fly a spaceship to the Mars.

As those names should, because they're Latin. I'm just repeating the IAU recommendations, at least for English, I couldn't be bothered taking about space in Spanish with my kitchen Spanish knowledge, so that's really not a big deal.
