Depending on the cycle, it is a waxing or waning gibbous moon if it is more than half visible. If it's completely visible, it's a full moon.
When the moon is half lit on the left side, it is called the "Last Quarter Moon" or "Third Quarter Moon." This phase occurs when the moon has completed three-quarters of its orbit around the Earth, resulting in the left half being illuminated as viewed from Earth.
