The response from spoon is: Bite Me!
(I always want to capitalize the first word after a colon. It is wrong, I know, but sometimes you have to give into your grammatical weaknesses or else you end up like Greybeard).

The Earth is Terra. That's where all those Terrans come from.

Re: What is the Name our Moon?
and what little life and grasp of precedence we may have had slowly dribble's away...
on the other hand, to much seriousness makes for boredom, boredom lead's to irratation, irratation lead's to anger, anger leads to hate and next thing you know your wearing a life-support mask because your face got major damage. and a cape, because you just have to be dramatic.

Re: What is the Name our Moon?
Since the purpose of assigning names is to communicate and since most people you are likely to use the words the Moon or Luna with will know what you are talking about it comes down to
"A rose called by any other...."
