Well,we have the two possibilites-Feb & Apr.....Sorry akidna,Dec is named after Latin for ten...Decem...and before u ask me why December is named after ten when it is the Twelfth month......thatz coz the earliest Latin calendar was a 10-month one, beginning with March; thus, September was the seventh month, October, the eighth, etc.
