White blood cells that engulf and destroy pathogens are called monocytes (which circulate in the blood and reside in the bodies tissues) and neutrophil or neutrocytes (which circulate in the bloodstream as well but are particularly responsive to bacterial and fungal infections and inflammations).

White blood cells
White Blood Cells(Leucocytes). They engulf the foreign(harmful) substances in the body through enzymes.
White blood cells use phagocytosis to remove foreign particles from the blood stream. These cells will literally engulf foreign particles that are the same size as itself. There are two types of white blood cells which act as phagocytes: macrophages and polymorphic leucocytes. To be phagocytosed, particles need to bind to the receptors on the phagocyte. Then the particle is engulfed and absorbed.
Phagocytic white blood cells contain a large number of lysosomes. These organelles contain enzymes that break down waste and cellular debris - which is why phagocytes (which engulf and digest things) contain many lysosomes.
Cells that engulf and digest bacteria and other foreign substances as well as debris from dead cells are called macrophage. Macrophage also stimulate white blood cells to respond to pathogens.
White blood cells are blood cells that engulf and digest bacteria and fungi. Basophil is a white blood cell with granules that stain with basic dyes.
Macrophages are "big eaters" and are a type of white blood cell that engulf and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes, and cancer cells in a process called phagocytosis.

Leucocytes are blood cells that engulf and digest bacteria and fungi; and is an important part of the body's defence system.

Inside the human body, a particular type of white blood cell called a macrophage will engulf and digest bacteria.
