There are two calendars, I am not sure which one you mean.

The Gregorian - which has the 12 months that are used around the world and their names are the same in Hebrew

The Hebrew calendar - with 12 months which all have different lengths than the Gregorian months and have different names.

The names of the Hebrew months are all of Babylonian origin. Prior to the Babylonian captivity, Hebrew months were only designated by numbers.
