The last four months of the year are named after numbers. September (from the Latin for seventh month), October (8th), November (9th), and December (10th).
But wait! Isn't October the 10th month? Isn't December the 12th month? Of course they are. These names come from the Latin words (Septimus, Octavus, Nonus, Decimus) but date from a calendar that had only 10 months. Two months named for emperors (Caesar Julius, Caesar Augustus) were inserted into the new "Julian" calendar, leaving us with the word for 8th month attached to our 10th month. Silly? Yes. True? Yes.
