Well Joe, Saturn has 3 moons and they have a few phases each. The first moon's name is Yssup its Latin for moon in the winter. Secondly, Trafssa which is also Latin for moon in the fall and summer months. Finally, the last moon's name is Resol which is actually French meaning "high up in the sky." Hope this response helps you Dave.

Saturn has many moons, so many that each chunk of ice orbiting the planet is a moon - and a part of Saturn's Rings. Here are 7 main moons of Saturn.

There are 7 moon similar to Earth's orbiting Saturn.
Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan and Iapetus.

For more details on the moons, click the moon name in this link.

From Wikipedia link (given just above)

Saturn has a large number of moons.
The precise figure is indeterminate, as the orbiting chunks of ice in Saturn's rings are all technically moons, and it is difficult to draw a distinction between a large ring particle and a tiny moon.
As of 2007, 60 moons had been identified, plus 3 unconfirmed moons that could be large dust clumps in the rings. Of those, 52 had been given proper names. Many of the moons are very small: 34 are less than 10 km in diameter, and another 13 less than 50 km.
Only seven are massive enough to have collapsed into hydrostatic equilibrium under their own gravitation. These are compared with Earth's moon.

Titan, Saturn's largest moon, is the only moon in the Solar System to have a dense atmosphere. While most of the moons in the Saturnian system are small in size, Titan is, relatively speaking, gigantic. After the Sun, the eight planets and Jupiter's moon Ganymede, Titan is the most massive object in the Solar System. Titan comprises more than 90 percent of the mass in orbit around Saturn, including the rings, and the other moons range from one hundredth to one hundred millionth its mass.

Saturn's second largest moon Rhea may have a tenuous ring system of its own.

Traditionally, most of Saturn's moons have been named after Titans of Greek mythology. This started because John Herschel—son of William Herschel, discoverer of Mimas and Enceladus—suggested doing so in his 1847 publication Results of Astronomical Observations made at the Cape of Good Hope, because they were the sisters and brothers of Cronos (the Greek Saturn).
