what are the names of moons on earth?

Question

i need it

Answer 1

Claudine, Do you mean what are the names we on earth give all the moons in the Solar System? i.e. allowing for the possibility of their having inhabitants giving them alternative names? (Like the French calling London Londres but the inhabitants calling it London?)

If so, it is a very long answer but:

Mercury: 0
Venus: 0
Earth: 1
Mars: 2
Jupiter: 63
Saturn: 56
Uranus: 27
Neptune: 13

Total: 162 planetary moons,

There are, in addition, some 80 known moons of minor planets and asteroids, including Pluto which has 3 (Charon, Hydra and Nyx) and Eris which has 1 (Dysnomia) and the asteroid 87 Sylvia which has 2 (Romulus and Remus).

With their orbital periods, the 162 are as follows (In order outwards from the planet):
