We should name the moon. Most people don't call their pets "dog" or "cat". (lemmy.world)

It does. The moon is officially called Luna.

Also people have been known to all their cat Neko which is Japanese for cat.

The official name is "The Moon", Luna just means moon in Latin. It's all about capitalization. Moon is our moon, and moon is any moon.
