It's the other way around; Mesopotamia is part of the Fertile Crescent.

Mesopotamia is only the eastern part of the Fertile crescent, in the current country of Iraq. The western part included Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, and Palestine. It is called the fertile crescent because it is a fertile area in the surrounding desert and mountains, and it is shaped in a crescent.
