Dieter N Vercáriâ | > "The names of the 7 days of the week are no longer the same as the names in the Julian and Gregorian calendars. Thus none of the days of the week are any longer named after pagan gods and goddesses, nor celestial bodies. Instead all the names of the days of the week have numerical meanings. They are tentatively named as follows: First-day, Second-day, Third-day, Fourth-day, Fifth-day, Sixth-day, and Seventh-day. Other possible names are Oneday, Twoday (except that this word sounds to similar to the word today), Threeday, Fourday, Fiveday, Sixday, and Sevenday."

As far as I know, some days of the week are named like this in Portuguese. Don't shoot me for typos, but I think the names go from segunda-feira (Monday / "second day") to sexta-feira (Friday / sixth day), and only Saturday and Sunday have distinct names.
