This is coined the “Corn” moon because this happens during the time of the year when the corn harvest is ready! And we’ve got the Hunter’s Moon (in October), the Beaver Moon (in November), and the Cold Moon (in December) to still see this year.

What’s unique about this full moon is it’s the 4th in the summer season. Usually seasons only have 3 full moons. This does happen every 2 to 3 years, so it’s just uncommon but still special!
