Yes. The moon is the only natural body close enough to Earth to orbit it.
the earth would rotate the moon or the next closest planet
There is a high tide on the side of the Earth that is opposite to the Moon. This is because of the differences in the strength of the Moon's gravity felt at different places on Earth. The water on that far side is subject to a smaller gravitational pull than the center of the Earth and is so is "left behind", forming a tidal bulge. See the "related link" below.
The Earth has only one moon so the Earth's moon name is Moon, The Moon or it can be the Latin name "Luna".
You said, "moonshade," right? There are a couple of problems here. I thought you might be referring to a plant, but there is no such plant ("Moonshadow" is closest, but it's not poisonous.) So I have to assume that by "moonshade" you mean the shade of the moon. That's a lunar eclipse. This occurs when the moon is between the Earth and the Sun. The moon may take a beating in this situation, but it shields the Earth.
the moon is a natural satellite of the earth
mars venus
The closest neighbor to Earth in space is the Moon. It is Earth's only natural satellite, located about 384,400 kilometers away.
Our moon's the closest, followed by Venus.
venus
Earth is the closest planet to the moon and Venus follows as the second closest planet to the moon
the moon is the closest to the earth
The closest planet to the Moon is Earth. The Moon is Earth's natural satellite and is closest to our planet in terms of distance.

The moon is Earth's closest neighbor in space and the only natural object to orbit it. Counting it in "planets away from Earth" does not make any sense as the planets revolve around the sun, not Earth.
The order of the planets:Mercury, Venus, Earth Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Dwarf Planets.It depends on what heavenly body you talk about. If you talk about the planetary neighbor, that would be Venus (often called Earth's twin) in the closest distance of 38 million kilometers. If you talk about any heavenly body, it would be its own moon (officially called The Moon), being 221,463 miles as its closest distance from the Earth.
The closest natural object to Earth is the moon.
The Earth is the closest body to the moon.
