Etymology

Uncertain, perhaps by haplology of earlier *nove(m)-mēmbris (“of or pertaining to the ninth month”), from *nove(m)-mēnzris, from novem (“nine”) + *mēnzris, from *mēnzlis, from *mēns (“month”) + *-lis; see novem, and mēnsis. In the Roman calendar, the year began with Mārtius (“March”), and November was the ninth month of the year.
