Is there a European language besides German that does not have a heathen deity in its word for Wednesday?

[In German it's 'Mittwoch', "midweek", which is appropriate but boring. Are we the only boring people?]

No, honestly, it amuses me like something unholy that all the weekday-names are still Heathen. Even Sunday, except in the Roman languages. Fun!

Gibt's eigentlich noch eine europäische Sprache außer Deutsch, in der das Wort für den Mittwoch keine heidnische Gottheit im Namen hat? Oder sind wir die einzigen Langweiler?

Nein ehrlich, die ganzen heidnischen Namen, die da heimlich die Jahrhunderte überdauert haben, begeistern mich ziemlich. Sogar der Sonntag, außer in den romanischen Sprachen...

... is it bad that I now want a Ink Mixing Kit after reading officialgaiman? Mixing my own ink colours? Imagine the possibilities that would grant me for both my Silm and for Seelenbücher!

I wonder whether this calls for an Toxic Sludge Coloured Ink Day. I mean what?

(Lo and behold what the information on the product says: [quote]PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT MIX CANDY APPLE RED, TANGERINE DREAM AND HOT BUBBLE GUM WITH ANY OTHER INKS, AS THEIR BASIC CHEMICAL COMPOSITION IS DIFFERENT AND A SLUDGE-LIKE MATERIAL WILL RESULT.[/quote] ... Quod erat demonstrandum. *snerks*)
