Augustus Caesar and Julius Caesar were to be honored, Julius for making a new calender that was more accurate and unchanging for the Romans, and Augustus for three times defeating the enemies of Rome and entering the city triumphant in the seventh month. Now we have a 12 month calender that ends with the 10th, Dec=10, as the 12th, the 9th month, Nov=9, as the 11th, the 8th month, oct=8, as the 10th, and the 7th month, sept=7, as the 9th month. We should be embarrassed, however, it's one of those little secrets that are in plain sight but unanimously ignored by everyone.

How many days are there in July and August?
Both July and August have 31 days. In the original Julian calendar, the month we now know as August only had 30 days but when they changed the name to August to honor Caesar Augustus, he wanted his month to have the same number as Julius Caesar had in his month (July) so they took one day from February and added it to August.
