The various shapes of the bright part of the moon visible during a month are called the phases of the moon.
The cycle starts off with the new moon, it takes 28 for the moon to complete the cycle. After 14 days from the new moon, we get the full moon.
The phase after the full moon is known as the last quarter and it comes 7 days after the full moon.
