There are two main reasons. The first is in analogy with the fact that 21 is not pronounced twoty one. But more seriously, many of the smaller numbers were given their own names rather than names derived by concatenating the tens and units. In English and German numbers up to 12 have their own names, in French up to 16, in many Indian languages 18.
Because life is based around the number twelve, eleven actually means one before twelve, but because humans have ten digits we chose to base it around ten. Look around you and everything, time and so on, is based on the number twelve and it is subtly hidden inside our language.
The numbers between ten and twenty are unique.
Traditionally, some relatively small numbers have their own names.
