You can't see it, but when I read this question I rubbed my hands together in happiness and anticipation because this is a question that I have thought about many times before, and here's what I've come up with:

John Lennon on lead guitar, rhythm guitar, and vocals. Every great rock groups needs someone to be the political activist, and John Lennon was not only one of the greatest political activists, but also one of the greatest musicians of all time.

Eric Clapton on lead guitar. Naturally, the greatest supergroup ever would have to have the greatest guitarist ever.

Ringo Starr on drums. Whenever I listen to covers of Beatles songs the main gripe I have with them is that none of them get the drumming right. Ringo is, in my opinion, the greatest drummer ever.

Bob Dylan on harmonica and vocals. The supergroup needs someone to write all their hit songs. Bob Dylan is my favorite song writer ever.

Paul McCartney on bass guitar, keyboards, and vocals. Originally I chose McCartney for this fictional supergroup because I didn't know of many other bass players, but then I did some minimal research and found out that I still couldn't find any other bass player better than him.

George Harrison on sitar and vocals. I've always been a fan of sitars in popular music. I considered Ravi Shankar or Brian Jones for this position, but it seemed like a crime against nature to have three of the Beatles and not the fourth.

If I had to pick a name for them, it'd be "The Supergroup," because it not only brings to mind Bob Dylan's "The Band," it also implies that they are the definitive supergroup.
