noon

adj. of noontime; occurring at twelve o'clock in the daytime

n. midday; 12:00 P.M., twelve o'clock in the daytime

Noon is 12:00 at midday. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the moment when the sun crosses the meridian. The sun does cross the meridian at noon, apparent solar time, but we live by civil time (which is either Standard Time or Daylight Saving Time depending on the time of year and local laws) which is not the same as apparent solar time. Midday is also used as a synonym for noon, although this may also be a more general term to mean around noon, or very early afternoon.
