A full moon is special because it happens every month.

A full moon is when the moon is behind the Earth and the new moon is when the moon is in front of Earth. So they are exact opposites.
A full cycle - e.g., from full moon to full moon - is about 29 1/2 days. From new moon to full moon is half that time.A full cycle - e.g., from full moon to full moon - is about 29 1/2 days.

The full moon comes once a month so you see full moon twelve times a year!
Well, the moon is a sphere, and if it is a full moon you are really only seing half of it. so technically you are seeing 50% of the moon

The Moon has no special name in particular months.
All night. The proper term is "perigee full moon" , and it happens every 15 years or so when the full moon happens to coincide with the Moon's "perigee", or closest point of approach to the Earth. This one isn't anything particularly special.
Mercury doesn't have a moon, so they couldn't have a full moon.
There was nothing all that special about the "super moon"; the Moon gets that close to Earth EVERY month. The catch is that when the Moon is closest to the Earth - perigee - is rarely precisely at the time of the full moon. That combination of a full moon just at perigee only happens every 28 years or so.
