Tamuz -Why The Name

The Ramban דרשה לר"ה explains why Klal Yisroel adopted Babylonian names for the months.*

Tammuz is a name of an Avoda Zara
 יחזקאל פ"ח הנשים ישבות מבכות את התמוז

Many attempted to answer how we
may and why we did name the month
after an Avoda Zara.

The latest answer I heard, was from
Harav Hagaon R. Chaim Kanievsky Shlita.
He said being it was the month they
placed a צלם in the היכל 


*Originally the months had no names
but numbers 1st 2nd etc. except for 
אביב -זיו - בול
