The full moon on January 21, 2019 is the Full Wolf Moon.
Historically, month names are names of moons in lunisolar calendars. Such names have gained currency in American folklore. They appear in print more widely outside of the almanac tradition from the 1990s in popular publications about the Moon. Some names have native tribal associations while others come from Colonial American traditions. Farmers’ Almanacs in America began publishing moon names in the 1930s.
