Sturgeon Moon Name Origin. What is a Sturgeon Moon? The full moon that appears in August is called the Sturgeon Moon. North American fishing tribes called Augustâs full moon the sturgeon moon since the species was abundant during this month, especially in the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water.
It will be shining bright tonight too! Once again, tonight the moon will be appear to be almost full around 9PM. Now, if you are wondering why we call it a Buck Moon, well the name comes from Native Americans. Buck Moon is just one of three names to represent the July full moon. Some call it Hay Moon because farmerâs are beginning to store their hay. Others call it âThunder Moonâ because of the amount of thunderstorms that occur during this month.
