Well, just for linguistic interest, that's exactly what they say in
German: "Halbmond" is the term for both first and third quarter.

Also, the gibbous moon is called "three-quarter moon", so it really
describes what we see.

But also here, the empty moon is called "new moon".

Oh really? It even has an entry at Wikipedia. They talk about "waxing
crescent" and "waning crescent".
