The Earth's moon is called Luna. That is where we get the terms lunar eclipse, lunar landing, etc.     ANSWER:   The name of the moon is simply Moon. As ansâ¦wered above, the word Luna is latin for the word moon. Now that we no longer, or have never spoke Latin, we call it the moon.
It's not, particularly. It's called Earth in English, but it's called Terre in French, and other names in other languages. I'm sure the Chinese name for it is in fact the most common appelation. In all cases, the name is the same one used to represent dirt. People sometimes also ask why our moon doesn't have a name like other moons in the solar system. The answer is that it does, we call it 'Moon', and just happen to use that name as a generic term for other 'moons'. Earth is just what people thought up of calling our planet. Earth isn't named after anything.
