This is a holdover from ancient astronomy when people thought the solar system had seven planets including the sun and moon (basically the parts of the solar system observable with the naked eye). When the days were brought into English they were associated with the norse / germanic deities associated with the corresponding planet.

I'm using the French words for the latin comparison cause I don't care enough to look this shit up.

Sunday = Sun
Monday = Moon
Tuesday (Tiuw) = Mardi (latin root) = Mars
Wednesday = (Odin) = Mercredi (latin root) = Mercury
Thursday (Thor) = Jeudi (latin) = Jupiter
Friday (Frigga) = Vendredi (latin) = Venus
Saturday = Saturn

i have no idea why i bothered typing this shit. oh well

All the other names were taken by the other days.
