The Norse called Saturday "Laugerdagr" which translates to washing day/laundry day. They apparently thought doing the wash was equal to worship of their gods. Which, I don't totally disagree. (Cleanliness is next to godliness)

The church wasn't having that though... So they went with the roman God of time. Saturn.
