All the monthly Full Moons are named e.g. list at timeanddate.com, of which "Harvest Moon" is the one people are probably most familiar with. So the March Full Moon is indeed the "Worm Moon" although rarely referred to as such. The extra hyperbole ("Super", "Blood" etc) seems to be a recent (within the last few years) media phenomenon for unknown reasons...

    I think "super" refers to the apparent size of the moon due to it being closer to Earth (since the orbit is not perfect and it is sometimes closer and sometimes farther)? And "blood" refers to the reddish color.
