Fun Facts: October

Welcome October!!

Did you know that originally, October was given its name from the Latin "Octo", meaning "Eight", as it represented the 8th month in the early Roman calendar?! When the Romans converted to the 12-month calendar, the name October stayed, even though it then became the 10th month of the year!
