Hijri calendar fixes some of the inconsistency. Day naming is just 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, "gathering day", "rest day". Number of days in months are based on the moon phases. Days start on sunset instead of some arbitrary time at night.
There's also a clever, perhaps unintentional naming in days, where the first day is al-Ahad (The One), which is also a name of Allah (Unique, The One). So it's no longer some awkward Sunday or Thor's Day or Zero Day.
