There were parts of the Roman calendar that were lost in the Middle Ages, but the months were not lost, and the lost parts were not recovered, for which we can be thankful. One of the lost parts was naming the year after the consuls of the year instead of using a number based on a single date. Years were numbered, but according to a fifteen year cycle used for tax reassessments, and these were named after the emperor of the time.
During the Middle Ages, the Julian calendar was used, and in terms of months, it was nearly identical to the calendar we use today. The dates of Church holidays were far too important to allow the calendar to be lost. One of the most important calculations done regularly during the period was the computus, which was the calculation of the calendar date of Easter. Also, during the Middle Ages the system we use based on anno domini, or the current era, was introduced. There is a link below to an article on computus.
One known problem of the Middle Ages is that the practices of starting the year on January 1 was not universal. In some places, at some times, the year was started on December 25, March 25, or some other date. By the end of the Middle Ages, January 1 was nearly universally used as the beginning of the year. There is a link below to a section of an article on the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle that deals with this problem.
