I would recommend going with five sectors - four outer ones and one in the middle.

As for the names, each galaxy so far as its own unique way of naming. The Andromeda Galaxy goes by either made-up names or real world languages based in Asia and Africa). The Milky Way uses plain English, Greek or Latin.

I think the political status would be something unique. What do you think of these for the sector names:
 * Zi'vani Sector - Where the Zi'vani have charted as near-future targets of exploration and colonization.
 * Imperial Sector - A heavily colonized region under the influence of a powerful empire
 * Harvested Sector - A region that shows evidence of a past civilization that set up Dyson spheres and strip mines
 * Central Sector - The middle sector
 * Wild Sector - A largely unexplored region
