Maundy Thursday

Holy Thursday is the day that Christ celebrated the Last Supper with His disciples, four days after His triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. Only hours after the Last Supper, Judas would betray Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, setting the stage for Christ's Crucifixion on Good Friday.

I just call it the Easter weekend. I don't think it has a name like Good Friday or Easter

Sunday.

A. The Saturday before Easter Day is called Vigil or Holy Saturday (In Latin is Sabbatum Sanctum) and it marks the end of the Holy Week. The day before is called Good or Holy Friday.

When do Christians stop fasting during Lent?

Lent lasts for forty days and unlike similar fasts last through the nights as well. Sundays are not counted in the forty days as each Sunday is seen as a celebration of the resurrection (like mini-Easters) anyway. Lent ends the Saturday before Easter Sunday. Good Friday is a fasting day anyway. Eastern churches start Lent on the Monday of the 7th week before Easter and end it on the Friday 9 days before Easter. Eastern churches call this period the 'Great Lent'.
