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.
The period after a full moon when the amount of the lighted side of the moon appears to be decreasing is known as the waning phase. During this time, the moon transitions from full to new, with the illuminated portion gradually shrinking each night. This phase includes the waning gibbous and waning crescent stages, marking a shift in the moon's visibility in the night sky.
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.
During the waxing gibbous phase, the amount of illumination is increasing. This phase occurs after the first quarter and before the full moon, where more than half of the moon's surface is illuminated by sunlight. As the moon continues to wax, it approaches the full moon phase, reaching maximum illumination.

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.
During the waxing gibbous phase, the amount of illumination is increasing. This phase occurs after the first quarter and before the full moon, where more than half of the moon's surface is illuminated by sunlight. As the moon continues to wax, it approaches the full moon phase, reaching maximum illumination.
