The moon's so-called "quarter" phases occur a quarter of a month (i.e. a week) before

and after the New Moon. On each of those occasions, the moon appears half-full.

What do you call a moon bigger than a quarter?

A moon that is larger than a quarter can be referred to as a "large moon" or simply a "moon."

However, there isn't a specific term that universally defines moons based solely on their size relative to a quarter.

In which direction and around what time of day does a first quarter Moon rise?

A first quarter moon is 90 degrees from the earth and the sun. Therefore, it rises around noon. Last quarter moons are also at 90 degrees, but the 'other' 90 degrees, 180 degrees from the first quarter position. So last quarter moons rise around midnight. The moon always rises in the east.
