March
Latin. History: The month of February came from the Roman month Februarius ("of Februa,"). It was named for the Februa/Februatio festival, which occurred on the 13th to 15th days of this Roman month. A later Roman god Februus personified both the month and also purification, and is named for them. Thus, the month is named for the festival and not for the god.
