Some things they lefty out are that words like ' Annual' come from the Sumerian/Akkadian 'god' Anu.

The zodiac sign for Capricorn derives from the Sumerian depiction of the god Enki, whose avatars or symbols included the goat and the fish..

Far too many to list and many don't have anything to do with month, year or day names.

The Seven-Day Week

Origin Of Month and Day Names

The Babylonians marked time with lunar months. They proscribed some activities during several days of the month, particularly the

first — the first visible crescent,
seventh — the waxing half moon,
fourteenth — the full moon,
nineteenth — dedicated to an offended goddess,
twenty-first — the waning half moon,
twenty-eigth — the last visible crecent,
twenty-nineth — the invisible moon, and
thirtieth (possibly) — the invisible moon.

The major periods are seven days, 1/4 month, long. This seven-day period was later regularized and disassociated from the lunar month to become our seven-day week.
The Naming of the Days

The Greeks named the days week after the sun, the moon and the five known planets, which were in turn named after the gods Ares, Hermes, Zeus, Aphrodite, and Cronus. The Greeks called the days of the week the Theon hemerai “days of the Gods”. The Romans substituted their equivalent gods for the Greek gods, Mars, Mercury, Jove (Jupiter), Venus, and Saturn. (The two pantheons are very similar.) The Germanic peoples generally substituted roughly similar gods for the Roman gods, Tiu (Twia), Woden, Thor, Freya (Fria), but did not substitute Saturn.
