Wrong approach. We should change our numbering system to base-12 instead.

  You’re a Dozenalist. There are dozens of us! What makes it especially appealing to me is that we don’t need to invent new names for the digits A and B (though I’d like to come up with better glyphs than reusing those letters). Ten and Eleven work just fine, and can be used for larger numbers like “forty-ten” (₁₀58) and “eleventy-four” (₁₀136) Another bonus is that when we transition to this superior numbering system, I can sneer at the metric world, what with their archaic finger-based measuring system. The Foot will return to a place of honor.

  A more sensible proposal than changing the calendar. But consider base 12 has few advantages over base 6 but base6 greatly simplifies math since you only need to remember 24 entries for the commutative pair tables (multiplication)
