Maybe "Callisto", because it has lots of craters.

Also, "Ganymede" looks like the Moon. It has craters and smoother areas where ice covers many craters. Unlike our Moon, it is the darker areas that have the most obvious craters.

What is a natural satelite?

Technically, the moon (Luna) is the only "natural" satellite of the Earth (Terra). That is because it is the only one that was not put into orbit deliberately by sentient beings. If asteroids are retrieved from the asteroid belt and sent into orbit around the Earth (as is currently being planned by NASA), they would still not be considered "natural" sattelites. Only if a meteor is captured by the Earth's gravitational force and goes into a stable orbit (most unlikely) without having had its normal orbit altered, would it be considered "natural".
