Month names collection / metastudy

[MarcoP]

 I wonder if it's possible that the month name writer was familiar with this naming system, but combined it with -embre names from French. I assume there were many regions where people were familiar with both a Romance and a Germanic dialect.

I agree, Koen, a Romance / German mix sounds like a possible explanation. It's the idea I also expressed here: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

I guess that, if such mixes occurred, we should find other examples sooner or later...
