Please keep that idea to whatever languages that assign those names to months. East Asian languages have been calling them literally "month 1/2/3/etc." without problems, just like how most languages don't have 31 different words for each day in a month.
Alternatively, if we have to give months aliases, why not fix those languages by e.g. reassigning "September" to the 7th month?
