Yes, you very well do need Latin names in classification keys.
A 7-sided shape is called a heptagon and not a septagon because the names of polygons are derived from the Greek names for the numbers. The Greek for "seven" is "hepta" - thus a heptagon is a 7-sided figure. If the system for naming polygons had been based on the Latin names for numbers, then a 7-sided polygon might have been called a septagon, since the Latin word for "seven" is "septem," but Latin is not the basis for these names in English.
At one time December was the tenth month. The names of September, October, November, and December are from the Latin numbers seven through ten.
