This is the first quarter phase. The moon looks half lit, half in shadow, but you actually can only see one quarter of the moons surface at this point (during a full moon, you would only be able to see half of the moons surface - the half that faces us).
The waning Moon phase in which only one-half of the lighted side of the Moon can be seen from Earth is called the Third Quarter Moon. It occurs when the Moon has completed three-quarters of its 29.5-day cycle.
The waxing phase of the moon when you can see half of the lighted side is called the First Quarter Moon. During this phase, the moon is positioned at a right angle to the Earth and sun, resulting in half of its surface being illuminated. This occurs approximately one week after the New Moon phase, marking the transition from darkness to increasing light.
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.
The Waxing Moon phase occurs when we can see the right half of the Moon illuminated from Earth as it moves towards a full moon. This phase follows the New Moon and precedes the Full Moon in the lunar cycle.
The moon phase when none of the lighted portion can be seen from Earth 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.

The waning Moon phase in which only one-half of the lighted side of the Moon can be seen from Earth is called the Third Quarter Moon. It occurs when the Moon has completed three-quarters of its 29.5-day cycle.

crescent moon
That phase is called the third quarter or it could be called a waning half moon.
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.
The Waxing Moon phase occurs when we can see the right half of the Moon illuminated from Earth as it moves towards a full moon. This phase follows the New Moon and precedes the Full Moon in the lunar cycle.
The lighted half of the moon is always facing the sun. The entire dark half of the moon is facing earth at the time of "New Moon".
First Quarter and/or Third Quarter.
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.
That would be Third Quarter.
After the half-moon phase, the moon's lighted side appears to grow smaller every night, transitioning towards the new moon phase where the moon is not visible in the sky. This progression is known as the waning crescent phase.
