How do you classify the moon phases?
Generally speaking, if you live in the Northern Hemisphere, the sunlit portion of the moon will move from right to left (i.e. a first quarter moon will look like a capital D and a third quarter moon will look like a reverse capital D). In the Southern Hemisphere, the sunlit portion of the moon will move from left to right (the first and third quarter moons will be lit on the opposite sides as when viewed from the Northern Hemisphere). In countries near the equator, it is a lot harder to ascertain waxing and waning moon phases but the first quarter moon will look like a lowercase n when it rises and an uppercase u when it sets, likewise the third quarter moon will look like an uppercase u when it rises and a lowercase n when it sets.

Why is the first quarter moon phase called that?
At "half Moon" we see half of the Moon's hemisphere that is facing Earth. But "half Moon" isn't what astronomers call that phase of the Moon. It is called a "quarter Moon" phase. That's because the Moon has completed one quarter (at First Quarter phase) or three quarters (at Third Quarter phase) of an orbit around the Earth since new Moon. (Another possible reason is that we see a quarter of the total surface of the Moon at these phases.)
