International Fixed Calendar? I seem to remember hearing a proposal for the 13th month being called Sol which is kinda cool.

The 13th month should be called eleven, because it'd come after December (10), our 12th month.

I think December comes from Classical Greek number 10 deka. 11 is enteka. So the next month could be Entecember.
