There used to be only 10 months in the Roman calendar. And then the Gregorian calendar absorbed the Roman one and add two extra months cause the Roman one just ignored about 61 days in midwinter.

@canusernamebemyusername but they could have had january be 11 and february be 12 and then the names would match!!
