Answer:

When the crescent moon icon is shown beside a contact's name in the messages list in the Messages app, it means that you have selected not to receive notifications about new messages from that contact.

To turn the setting off for that contact:

In the Messages app, open the conversation with that contact.
Tap on the "i" icon at the upper-right of the screen.
Turn off Do Not Disturb.
Tap on Done (upper-right).

Open the Messages app and select the conversation where the half moon appears. Next tap on the circle “i” or “Details” button on the top right corner of the messages thread. This will take you to the “Details” screen where you can turn the “Do Not Disturb” mode off.
