The amount of lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during first quarter and third quarter phases. These phases occur when half of the moon's surface is illuminated, and they represent the halfway points between new moon and full moon phases.
The phase you are referring to is called "waxing," where the amount of the lighted side of the moon that can be seen increases as the moon moves from new moon to full moon.
This period is known as the waning phase of the moon. During this phase, the illuminated portion of the moon visible from Earth decreases in size as it transitions from a full moon to a new moon.
This phase is called a waning moon and occurs as the moon transitions from a full moon to a new moon. The decrease is a result of the changing position of the moon in relation to the sun and Earth.
The phase that occurs between the first quarter and the full moon is the waxing gibbous phase. During this phase, the illuminated portion of the moon is increasing in size, moving towards the full moon phase.

This period is known as the waning phase of the moon. During this phase, the illuminated portion of the moon visible from Earth decreases in size as it transitions from a full moon to a new moon.
The moon phase when none of the lighted side can be seen is called a new moon. During this phase, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, so the side of the moon facing Earth is not illuminated.
That's the 'Full Moon'.
half moon
The moon phase "waning gibbous" appears after the moon phase "full moon".It becomes the "last quarter" or "third quarter" when the lighted part is exactly 50%of the side facing the Earth.
That phase is called the third quarter or it could be called a waning half moon.
The moon is in its waning phase when less and less of the side facing the earth is lighted. This phase occurs after the full moon and leads up to the new moon when the side facing the earth is completely dark.
The waxing moon phase is when the moon is transitioning from new moon to full moon, and the illuminated portion of the moon is growing larger each night. During this phase, we can see more than half of the moon's lighted side from Earth.
Only during a full moon.
Waxing phases - including waxing crescent, first quarter, and waxing gibbous - are when the amount of lighted surface seen on Earth increases. During these phases, the Moon transitions from being mostly dark to mostly lit as it approaches the full moon.
