Furthermore, some regions had a custom called moon-waiting, which is why the moon after the seventeenth night is called Tatemachi-zuki (moon-waiting in a standing position),　Imachi-zuki (moon-waiting in a sitting position), Nemachi-zuki (moon-waiting in a lying position) and Fukemachi-zuki (moon-waiting late at night).
更に、地方によっては月待ちという風習があり、十七夜以降を立待月（たてまち-）、居待月（いまち-）、寝待月（ねまち-）、更待月（ふけまち-）、というのはこの名残である。
