Speaking as an Orthodox Christian, I must offer a correction. The Patriarchate of Athens and All Greece does not use the Gregorian calendar. The Paschalion of Greece and of Moscow is identical-- neither has the Gregorian usage.

But that still doesn't alter my point--that it is possible for one religion to have two different days for the same (rather important) festival.
