Neurons that make up the majority of cell types within the central nervous system are:

Interneurons

Motor neurons

Sensory neurons

Sattellite cells are:

sparsely placed fusiform neurons in the molecular layer of the cerebral cortex

specific glial cells involved in the formation the blood-brain-barrier

supportive gliocytes surrounding the cell bodies of large neurons in the ganglia
