This isn't just pure enumeration of month or day of the week names, after all. Though standalone names could work well for a lot of languages because these formats consist of only the day of the week, only month and year or day of the week + month + year, without the day of month.

Because of that month names in Plasma's calendar view are currently always capitalized for all languages: https://commits.kde.org/plasma-framework/6240b9e7 and earlier https://commits.kde.org/plasma-framework/d1dc3113?. It could be preferable to force capitalization in the same way here as well, but I don't know if that is valid for all languages. Although it could be assumed valid until someone files a bug.

Yeah, standalone month names, ok then, sorry for the noise :)
