Most people would think it was just the second quarter moon, but actually it is called a Gibbous moon, which is when the moon is waxing between a first-quarter moon and a full moon. It's actually not my own words, so if you want to know the actual researcher her name is Gail Gibbons. In my own words I would say that it is called a Gibbous moon when it is between a fit quarter moon and a full moon. If this is not all of the information you wanted, then you should go to your local space museums, astronomy centers, or libraries. Special thanks to Mary Ann, Age 8.
