I've just been looking at the names of the months in Dragon Warriors and pondering their meaning/derivations. Some seem obvious (although the obvious may be wrong), others... well, I don't know. I could research them - and will if I need to - but it occurs to me that somebody else might have enough knowledge of old or middle English to not need to research it, or may have already done the research... anyway - any corrections or ideas

Forst-Monath - first month (or possibly frost month
Thawian-Monath - thawing month
Ploh-Monath - plough month
Oster-Monath - Easter month
Harel-Monath - Harrowing month
Eath-Monath - ???
Waed-Monath - ???
Heorfest-Monath - Harvest month
Arn-Monath - ???
Halig-Monath - Holy month
Bael-Monath - Bale month
Yeol-Monath - Yule Month
