What are the other names for Mid-Autumn Festival?

According to the Chinese calendar, the eighth month of the lunar calendar is in the middle of autumn and is the second month of autumn, called "Mid-Autumn". The fifteenth day of the eighth month is in the middle of "Mid-Autumn", so it is called "Mid-Autumn Festival".
The Mid-Autumn Festival has many nicknames: because the festival falls on August 15, it is called the "August Festival" or "Mid-August Festival"; because the main activities of the Mid-Autumn Festival are centered around the "moon", it is also commonly known as the "Moon Festival" or "Moon Eve".
The moon is full during the Mid-Autumn Festival, symbolizing reunion, so it is also called the "Reunion Festival." In the Tang Dynasty, the Mid-Autumn Festival was also called "Duan Zheng Yue".
The earliest record of the "Reunion Festival" can be found in the Ming Dynasty. "Xihu Youlan Zhiyu" said: "The 15th day of the eighth month is called Mid-Autumn Festival. People give each other mooncakes to symbolize reunion."
It is also said in "A Brief Account of Scenery of the Imperial Capital": "On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, people worship the moon. The moon cakes must be round, the melons must be cut in pieces with teeth-like shapes, and the petals must be carved like lotus flowers. ... If a wife has returned to her parents' home, she must go back to her husband's home on this day. It is called the Reunion Festival."
