About the names and the distance
The names are those popularised by North American almanacs, one per calendar month. The Harvest Moon is the full Moon nearest the September equinox, so it falls in September or in October. A second full Moon in the same calendar month is called a Blue Moon; here the month is counted in Universal Time.
The distance changes from one full Moon to the next because the orbit of the Moon is an ellipse. A full Moon near perigee, under about 360,000 km, is what the press calls a supermoon: it looks up to 14% wider than a full Moon near apogee.
The Moon looks full to the eye for about a day on either side of the exact instant.
