When naming the days of the week, the English, French and Germans derived the names from the moon, sun, etc. In Lithuanian, the translations are first day, second day, etc. What have other cultures named the days of the week after?

in irish, the days of the week sound much like french – de luain, de mairt, de cheadaoin, deardaoin,de haoine, de sathairn, de domhnach, and i was under the impression the days of the week sounding like these actually came partially from the norse gods ( thor, freya etc) i could be wrong though!
