There are a lot of big ones like Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Fedora or Arch. Arch is for users with a little more experience. But funnily enough Arch has like child-distributions, that build upon its core. Ubuntu is also a 'child' of Debian an Mint builds onto Ubuntu.

It's kind of like three or four big families, that had lots of children. 😂

(and then there are NixOS, OpenSuse and lots of others, which I forgot)
