If those parts were under Kralorelan domination in (more or less) recent times, that would make sense.

I have never seen these name in any other context than as the names (titles?) of the ancestral dragons. Do you have any other references?
One could argue for using the same month and week division all over the east, but the number six has no mythic significance in Vithela. If we accept a connection between the Kralorelan months and the ancestral dragons, the closest Vithelan equivalence would be the High Gods (which are nine or ten in number, depending on how you count). That's the reasoning behind my tentative high calendar.
