Saturn is also how we get Saturday in English.

Wednesday comes from Woden's Day, an alternative spelling of Odin's Day.

Which leads us to Thor's Day: Thursday.

I don't know where we get from Mars to Tuesday and Venus to Friday though.

Tuesday and Friday are named for Tyr and Frigg, respectively.
