I vote for Gregorian as well, because they are closest to western
names, which makes them the easiest to understand (As mentioned by
Khaled Hosny).

I understand what you mean here. Consider this however: the number of
people who are not aware of the Babylonian names, far exceeds the
number of people who dont know the Gregorian names.

Our convention so far has been to use the Gregorian names as opposed
to the Babylonian. When we can handle different locales, we will be
able to have different versions.

But for the moment, I think you will find the vast majority are in
favour of Gregorian names.
