Kazakh, for example. During the Soviet era, Kazakhs routinely used Russian month names. I heard something similar about Mongols using Chinese month names for a while, but cannot vouch for that.

So my objection continues: while there are examples of replacement month
names to go along with a replacement calendar, or shifting old names over to
a replacement calendar, other than royal decree (which was only of limited
effect while apparently marking also a calendar substitution) are there any
examples of replacement names to go onto an unchanged calendar within an
unchanged language? I don’t know of any.
