September is named after the Latin word 'septem' meaning seven because it was originally the seventh month in the ancient Roman calendar, which began in March; when Julius Caesar added January and February to the start of the calendar, September became the ninth month but retained its name.

Why September Was Once the 7th Month! #shortsAdded:
Ever wonder why September isn't the ninth month, even though its name says seven? Way back in ancient Rome, their calendar started in March, not January.
That made September the seventh month, but then Julius Caesar switched things up, adding January and February to the start.
Suddenly, September was bumped to ninth place, [music] but the name stuck. So, next time you flip your calendar, remember, September's still got a hidden seven in its history. Pretty cool, right?
