While simulating the sky on the day of Caesar's assassination (15 March 44 BC), I noticed that the Calendar plugin outputs "Ides Martii", while correct Latin would be "Idus
MartiiMartiae".https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/idus#Latin
Also, since Idus is a feminine plurale tantum, other months should be feminine plural (Ianuariae, Februariae, Maiae, Iuniae, Iuliae, Augustae). Aprilis, Septembris, Octobris, Novembris and Decembris seems fine, since already in antiquity they seem to have preferred the singular form.
