The Official and scientific name of Earth's moon is-The Moon.

Though it is known by many names in various languages - Luna (Latin, Spanish, Italian, and Russian), Mond (German), Lune (French),Selene(Greek) etc. Our moon was the first known moon. When we discovered that other planets had moons, they were given different names in order to distinguish them from our moon.

You are trying to ask what is the name of Earth's Satellite and the answer is "Moon"

Different planets have different satellites with different names, the name of our satellite is moon.
