Dictionaraddendum:

Because I simply cannot ignore the etymology behind the word "anniversary" and my grammar-senses tingle whenever I hear about someone's X-month anniverary...oh, wait, it looks like about three BILLION people (well, okay, 305 according to Google) have come up with the word mensiversary.

'kay, now instead of creating a new word, I am simply promoting its use. Ifeelkindasmallnow.

Haha, thanks. I've always had that problem with using anniversary to refer to a commemorative date that doesn't happen based on the period of a year, but as I didn't know how to name a commemorative date in terms of months, I've been guilty of using the word anniversary in that context too.
